Statement
3.9.15. Determine the first resonant frequency of air oscillations between two parallel buildings located at a distance
Solution
The first resonant frequency (fundamental tone) corresponds to the formation of a standing sound wave, where displacement nodes are formed at the boundaries (the rigid walls of the buildings). This means that exactly half of the wavelength
From here, we can find the wavelength:
Considering the relationship between the wavelength, the speed of sound
