Resonance Column Objective To find the velocity of sound in air at room temperature using the resonance column by determining two resonance positions. Also find the velocity of sound in air at 0 0 C. Theory Stationary waves Stationary waves are produced by the superposition of two waves of same frequency and amplitude travelling with same velocity in opposite directions. Due to the constructive interference, these waves produce certain fixed points along the medium which undergo zero displacement. These points of no displacement are known as nodes . Midway between every nodes are regions of maximum displacement. These points are called antinodes . Production of longitudinal stationary waves in air column Standing waves can be formed in a tube of air due to the interference of longitudinal sound waves travelling in opposite directions. In a pipe closed at one end, the closed end is a displacement node and the open end is a displacement antinode....
