Helmholtz Resonator using voltmeter

Click For Summary
A voltmeter cannot directly measure the resonant frequency of a Helmholtz resonator, as the resonator itself does not generate voltage. To measure the resonant frequency, a sensor or transducer, such as a microphone, must be used to convert sound waves into electrical signals. The maximum voltage output from the transducer corresponds to the resonant frequency of the sound wave. Understanding the relationship between the sound wave's amplitude and the voltage signal is crucial for accurate measurement. For further details, exploring resources on sound wave measurement techniques may be beneficial.

Hi,

I am trying to understand how precisely a voltmeter is used to measure the resonant frequency of a sound wave in a helmholtz resonator. Is it simply that the maximum voltage corresponds to the resonant frequency?
A detailed description or external link would be great.

Many thanks.

What voltage? The resonator does not produce a voltage. Do you have a sensor, a transducer somewhere?
