An organ pipe closed at one end restonates with a tuning fork of frequencies 180 Hz and 300 Hz it will also resonate with tuning fork of frequencies

A

630 Hz

B

420 Hz

C

480 Hz

D

540 Hz

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Resonate frewuencie are `n_(1)f` and `n_(2)f` where `n_(1)` and `n_(2)` ar intergers and f is fundamental frequency.
Here `n_(1)f=180` and `n_(2)f` = 300
`therefore" "(n1)/(n_(2))=(180)/(300)=(18)/(30)=3/5 thereforen_(1)=3 and n_(2)=5`
`therefore" "3f=180because f=(180)/3=60Hz`
Possible harmonics in the case of closed and organ pipe is 1,3,5,7,9,11,13, ......
The corresponding frequencies are 60,180,300,420, .....
