A Kundt's tube apparatus has a copper rod of length 1.0 m clamped at 25 cm from one of the ends. The tube contains air in which the speed of sound is 340 m s−1. The powder collects in heaps separated by a distance of 5.0 cm. Find the speed of sound waves in copper.

उत्तर
Given:
Speed of sound in air \[v_{air}\]= 340 ms−1
Velocity of sound in Kundt's tube \[v_{rod}\] = ?
Length at which copper rod is clamped l = 25 cm = 25\[\times {10}^{- 2} \text { m }\]
Distance between the heaps \[∆ l\]= 5 cm =\[5 \times {10}^{- 2} \text { m }\]
\[\frac{v_{rod}}{v_{air}} = \frac{2l}{∆ l}\]
\[ \Rightarrow v_{rod} = \frac{2l}{∆ l} \times v_{air} \]
\[\text { On substituting the respective values in the above equation, we get: }\] \[ v_{rod} = \frac{340 \times 25 \times {10}^{- 2} \times 2}{5 \times {10}^{- 2}}\]
\[ \Rightarrow v_{rod} = 3400 \text { m/s }\]

A traffic policeman sounds a whistle to stop a car-driver approaching towards him. The car-driver does not stop and takes the plea in court that because of the Doppler shift, the frequency of the whistle reaching him might have gone beyond the audible limit of 25 kHz and he did not hear it. Experiments showed that the whistle emits a sound with frequency closed to 16 kHz. Assuming that the claim of the driver is true, how fast was he driving the car? Take the speed of sound in air to be 330 m s−1. Is this speed practical with today's technology?
