An air column in a pipe which is closed ...

An air column in a pipe which is closed at one end, will be in response with the vibrating body of frequency 83 Hz. Then the length of the air column is

A

`1.5 m`

B

`0.5m`

C

`1.0 m`

D

`2.0 m`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`l=(lambda)/(4), f=83 Hz`
`v=332 m//s`
`lambda=(v)/(f)=(332)/(83)=4m`
`l=(lambda)/(4)=(4m)/(4)=1m=1.0m`

An air column in a pipe, which is closed at one end, will be in resonance with a vibrating tuning fork of frequency 256 Hz, if the length of the column in centimeter is (velocity of sound in air 340 m/s)

An air column, closed at one end and open at the other resonates with a tuning fork when the smallest length of the cloumn is 50 cm. The next larger length of the column resonating with the same tuning frok is:

A metre - long tube open at one end, with a movalble piston at the other end, shows resonance with a fixed frequency source (a tunning fork of frequency 340 Hz)when the tube length is 25.5 cm or 79.3 cm. Estimate the speed of sound in air at the temperature of the experiment. The edge effects may be neglected.

A closed organ pipe can vibrate at a minimum frequency of 500 Hz. Find the length of the tube. Speed of sound in air = 340 m s^-1 .
