    The document provides instructions for a take-home exam question involving the acoustic properties of a kettledrum. Students are given parameters like the drum membrane diameter, tension, and area density. They must: (1) calculate the wave speed and fundamental frequency without a backing vessel, (2) determine the value of B for a hemispherical backing, (3) plot Bessel functions to find where they intersect and the fundamental frequency with the backing. Sample calculations, a graph, and spreadsheet are provided for reference.

    ECGR 4122/5190 Acoustics – Take home question – Worth 50% of 2nd exam – Version 2

    Name__________________________________________________________
    By my signature above, I certify that I have neither given nor received help on this exam.
    A kettledrum consists of a circular membrane of diameter “D” with an area density of ρS. The
    membrane is stretched under tension of T and covers a backing vessel of volume V0. See the
    table on the next page for the values to use. Each person has different values and will get
    different answers. Assume 3 significant figures for everything.
    (a) (10 points) Use equation 6.1 to calculate the wave speed “c” for waves on the
    membrane. Use equation 6.20 to determine what the fundamental frequency of the
    membrane would be without a backing vessel.
    (b) (10 points) Assume the backing vessel of the kettledrum is a hemispherical bowl of
    radius D/2. The vessel is filled with air at a pressure of 100 kPa and γ (the ratio of
    specific heats) is 1.4. See page 122 in Raichel and page 60 in the class notes. Calculate
    the value of “B”.
    (c) (10 points) Use Origin to plot J0(ka) from ka=0 to ka=4.00 in steps of 0.01. On the same
    graph, plot -B*J2(ka)/(ka)2 from ka=0 to ka=4.00 in steps of 0.01. Attach the graph and
    the spreadsheet. Note: Tables of the values of Bessel functions J0(x) and J2(x) can be
    copied from https://keisan.casio.com/exec/system/1180573470 and pasted into Origin.
    (d) (10 points) Find the value of ka where the two lines intersect on the graph. Verify using
    the data in the spreadsheet.
    (e) (10 points) From this value of ka, determine the fundamental frequency for the
    membrane with the backing vessel. Submit the final results along with the section of
    spreadsheet and the graph to support your result.
    For example, the answers for problem 6.8 in the book are c=100 m/s, B=5.25, ka=3.05 and
    f=194 Hz, and the graph and spreadsheet are shown below.
