Two closed organ pipes of length 100 cm and 101 cm 16 beats in 20 sec. When each pipe is sounded in its fundamental mode calculate the velocity of sound 

a
303 ms–1
b
332 ms–1
c
323.2 ms–1
d
300 ms–1

detailed solution

Correct option is C

Number of beats per second,n=1620=45⇒n=n1−n2=v41l1−1l2⇒45=v411−11.01=0.01v4×1.01v=16×1015=323.2 ms−1

A tube of certain diameter and of length 48 cm is open at both ends. Its fundamental frequency of resonance is found to be 320 Hz. The velocity of sound in air is 320 m/s. One end of the tube is now closed, considering the effect of end correction, calculate the lowest frequency of resonance for the tube (in Hz).
