5) Vary the frequency of audio generator with the frequency knob control. Start from
lowest frequency; gradually increase the frequency of audio generator until
resonance occurs. When a resonance is found, a pronounced reinforcement of the
sound will be heard.
6) Determine and record the resonant frequency (f) from the waveform shown in
cathode ray oscilloscope in table shown below.

1st Resonance
2nd Resonance
3rd Resonance
4th Resonance
5th Resonance
6th Resonance
Period of wave, T /s
Resonance Frequency, f / Hz
7) Increase the signal frequency and determine another five resonant frequencies.
8) Plot a graph f against n.
9) Determine the gradient of graph.

12) Calculate the % of error for the experimental speed of sound.
% of error = _________ %
