Producing Siren Sound
A siren can be made by blowing a jet of air through 20 equally spaced holes in a rotating disk. The time it takes for successive holes to move past the air jet is the period of the sound. The siren is to produce a 2,200 Hz tone. What must be the angular speed (omega) in rad/s of the disk?
