Abstract
Torque on Rayleigh disk in a resonating tube, for high pitch sounds.---In the case of a disk 15 cm in diam. in a tube 16 cm in diam., a study of the deflection as a function of wave-length, 4 to 28 cm, showed that for a wave-length of 28 cm the disk tended to set itself parallel to the axis of the resonator, and hence was deflected in a direction opposite to the usual one. Other negative maxima were observed for waves of about 14 and 7 cm. Experiments with smaller disks showed that beyond a certain tube length the maximum critical wave-length for a negative maximum is independent of tube length and depends more on tube diameter than on disk diameter, approaching twice the tube diameter as the size of the disk is increased nearly to that of the tube.
