EXPERIMENT: Determining the Speed of Sound

Data Table:

Tuning fork frequency, Hz(printed on the fork)	Length, L water level to top of tube	Diameter of tube, d	l = 4(L + 0.3d)	Experimental v=fl	Room Temperature, oC

Percent error of experimentally derived value: ______________

Question:

Considering the length of your resonance tube, what is the lowest frequency tuning fork you could use for this experiment? Show your calculations!
