The flute is typically about 26 inches long and as we have seen this week it is a tube open at both ends. The open "pipe" creates anti-nodes near both ends. The flute shares this design with the recorder, and with some organ pipes. Other wind instruments use different resonant patterns. There are holes in the wall of the flute tube which are closed or opened by fingering valves that change its effective length. The pattern and mechanisms to do this set various designs of flutes played now and in the past. In answering these questions, assume that the velocity of sound in air is

340(m)/(s)

. Which if these factors affect the tuning of the flute, and why? a. Air temperature b. Air humidity (water vapor content) c. Alr pressure d. Flute temperature
