Studying for a physics final and I remember a question similar to this came up on an assignment. I think I've done it right, but just need somebody to check it. Free 10 points if you seem to know what you're talking about.
A 120hz tuning fork is placed in a room 33m wide such that it it 10m from one side. If the fork is set into oscillation, what is the phase difference in radians at the tuning fork? Speed of sound in air: 343m/s
I get 5.71 rad. Is that correct?
Ah, I made a stupid mistake when working with my path differences stuff. I didn't use exactly the same method as you, but I found out where I screwed it up. Thanks! Once the 4hours are up I'll get you those points
