Questions  

Two open organ pipes give 4 beats/sec when sounded together in their fundamental nodes. If the length of the pipe are 100 cm and 102.5 cm respectively, then the velocity of sound is :

a
496 m/s
b
328 m/s
c
240 m/s
d
160 m/s

detailed solution

Correct option is B

Δn=n1−n2⇒4=v2l1−v2l2=v211.00−11.025⇒8=v[1−0.975]⇒V=80.025≈328 m/s.

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).
