Question

Statement I: The fundamental frequency of an open organ pipe increases as the temperature is increased.
Statement II: As the temperature increases, the velocity of sound increases more rapidly than length of the pipe.

Moderate
Solution

The fundamental frequency of an open organ pipe is n =v2l. As temperature increases, both v and l increase but v increases more rapidly than l. Hence, the fundamental frequency increases as the temperature increases.
