Lecture Demonstrations

Beat Organ Pipes, 3B60.15

Topic and Concept:

Location:

OrganBeats01-400.jpg

Abstract:

Two tunable organ pipes of similar frequency are played simultaneously creating beats.

Equipment

Location

ID Number

Organ Pipes (2)

WS, Bay A2 Right, Shelf #1&2

Organ Base with Air Hose

WS, Bay A2 Right, Shelf #1

Red and White Gas Cart

Located under lecture bench in rooms 2103 and 2241

Important Setup Notes:

Setup and Procedure:

  1. Place the base on a tabletop.
  2. Attach the air hose to the compressed air output on the red and white gas cart.

  3. Insert the tube end of each organ pipe into the base so that the vents face the audience.
  4. Open the compressed air out valve.
  5. To sound the tubes, pull out the wooden knob on the base located beneath each of the two pipes.
  6. The frequencies can be tuned by sliding the wooden panels near the vents.

Cautions, Warnings, or Safety Concerns:

  • Make sure you are using compressed air and NOT methane gas which is highly flammable.

Discussion: Sound waves obey the principle of superposition. When two sound (pressure) waves encounter one another, they interfere. Spatially, the resultant wave has alternating spots of constructive and destructive interference. The frequency at which these occur in time at each location is called the beat frequency. The frequency depends on the respective frequencies of the interfering waves as follows

fbeat = |f1 - f2|
