In an organ pipe ( may be closed or open of `99 cm` length standing wave is setup , whose equation is given by longitudinal displacement `xi = (0.1 mm) cos ( 2pi)/( 0.8) ( y + 1 cm) cos 2 pi (400) t`
where `y` is measured from the top of the tube in metres and `t` in second. Here `1 cm` is th end correction.

Assume end correction approximately equals to `(0.3) xx`(diameter of tube) , estimate the moles of air pressure inside the tube (Assume tube is at `NTP` , and at `NTP , 22.4 litre` contain `1 mole`)

A

Upper end of the tube and lower end of the tube are respectively open and closed

B

Air column is vibrating in fundamental mode

C

Air column is vibrating in second overtone

D

Equation of the standing wave in terms of excess pressure is `DeltaP=(125piN//m^(2))sin((2pi)/(0.8))(y+0.01m)cos(800pit)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`epsi=0.1mm" "cos((2pi))/(0.8))(y+1cm)cos2pi(400)t`
correction is 1 cm so at y=-1 cm
Lower end y=99cm
`epsi=0 implies`Node so it is closed.
`(2pi)/(0.8)=(2pi)/(lamda)implies lamda=0.8` effective length of air column `0.99+0.01=1m`
`(l)/(lamda)=(5)/(4) implies l=(5lamda)/(4) implies`second overtone
`DeltaP=-B(depsi)/(dx)=(125pi(N)/(m^(2)))sin((2pi)/(0.8))(y+1cm)cos(800pit)`.
