If v is the speed of sound in air then the shortest length of the closed pipe which resonates to a frequency n

A

`V/(2n)`

B

`(4n)/V`

C

`V/(4n)`

D

`4 Vn `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

Shortest length `l = lambda/4 :. lambda = 4 l `
` :' v = 4 n l " or " l = v/(4n) `
