Refer to the following information for the next seven questions.

(a) Starting with the first arrow, designate whether the arrow is pointing towards an antinode (A) or a node (N). 

(b) What is the wavelength of the frequency being played into the tube? The length of the resonating chamber is 1.50 meters. 

(c) If the temperature in the chamber was 25ºC, calculate the speed of sound in the tube. 

(d) What is the driving frequency of the sound produced by the speaker? 

(e) What would be the frequency of the next harmonic?
