The air column in a pipe closed at one end is made to vibrate in its second overtone by a tuning fork of frequency `440 Hz`. The speed of sound in air is `330ms^(-1)`. End corrections may be neglected. Let `P_(0)` denote the mean pressure at any point in the pipe, and `DeltaP` the maximum amplitude of pressure variation.
(a) What the length `L` of the air column.
(b) What is the amplitude of pressure variation at the middle of the column?
( c ) What are the maximum and minimum pressures at the open end of the pipe?
(d) What are the maximum and minimum pressures at the closed end of the pipe?

A

length of the pipe is `15/16` m

B

length of the pipe is `9/16` m

C

the maximum pressure at the open end is `P_0`

D

the minimum pressure at the open end is `P_0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`f=5.v/(4l)`
`rArr l=(5v)/(4f)=15/16m`
The open end is position of node of pressure.There is no pressure variation.
