In the experiment for the determination of the speed of sound in air using the resonance column method, the length of the air column that resonates in the fundamental mode, with a tuning fork is `0.1m`. When this length is changed to `0.35m`, the same tuning fork resonates with the first overtone. Calculate the end correction.

A

`0.012 m`

B

`0.025 m`

C

`0.05 m`

D

`0.024 m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Let x the end correction then accoeding to question.
`(v)/(4(l_1+x))=(3v)/(4(l_2+x))impliesx=2.5cm=0.025m`.

What are the conditions for resonance of air column with a tuning fork?

A student performed the experiment to measured the speed of sound in air using resonance air-column method. Two resonances in the air-column were obtained by lowering the water level. The resonance with the shoter air-column is the first resinance and that with the longer air-column is the second resonance. then,

The end correction of a resonance column in resonance tube experiment is 0.5 cm. If the shortest length resonating with a tuning fork is 16 cm, then the next resonating length will be

The end correction of a resonance column is 2.0 cm. If the shortest length resonating with the tuning fork is 20.0 cm , the next resonating length will be

In resonance tube experiment, first resonance occurs for the length of air - column equal to 25 cm with a tuning fork of frequency 340 Hz. If the length of the air column is decreased by 1cm , the frequency of beats will be
