Q.
The pressure variation equation of a sound wave propagating in a medium with pressure amplitude P0 is
P=P0 sin ω(t−xv)
Inference:
In the tube where this wave is propagating if we measure pressure, then the maximum pressure measured will be P0 atm and Minimum pressure measured will be −P0 atm as maximum & minimum values of sin θ is (+1/-1).
