The separation between a node and the next antinode in a vibrating air column is 25 cm. If the speed of sound in air is `340 m s^-1`, find the frequency of vibration of the air column.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
340 Hz

Given that `(lambda)/(4)` = 25 cm
vibration frequency is `n = (v)/(lambda) = (340)/((l)) = 340 Hz`
