The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that if a closed pipe and an open organ pipe are of the same length, then neither of their frequencies can be the same. ### Step 2: Understand the Frequencies of Closed and Open Pipes The fundamental frequency (first harmonic) of a closed organ pipe (which has one closed end) is given by the formula: \[ f_{closed} = \frac{V}{4L} \] where \( V \) is the speed of sound in air and \( L \) is the length of the pipe. For an open organ pipe (which has both ends open), the fundamental frequency is given by: \[ f_{open} = \frac{V}{2L} \] ### Step 3: Compare the Frequencies If both pipes are of the same length \( L \), we can compare their fundamental frequencies: 1. For the closed pipe: \[ f_{closed} = \frac{V}{4L} \] 2. For the open pipe: \[ f_{open} = \frac{V}{2L} \] ### Step 4: Analyze the Frequencies Now, let's analyze the relationship between these two frequencies: - The frequency of the open pipe is: \[ f_{open} = 2 \times f_{closed} \] This means that the frequency of the open pipe is actually twice that of the closed pipe. ### Step 5: Conclusion on the Assertion Since the frequencies are not the same (the open pipe has a frequency that is twice that of the closed pipe), the assertion is correct. ### Step 6: Understand the Reason The reason states that the fundamental frequency of the closed organ pipe will be two times the fundamental frequency of the open organ pipe. ### Step 7: Analyze the Reason From our previous analysis, we found that: \[ f_{closed} = \frac{1}{2} f_{open} \] This means that the reason is incorrect because it incorrectly states the relationship between the frequencies. ### Final Conclusion - The assertion is true: If a closed pipe and an open organ pipe are of the same length, their frequencies cannot be the same. - The reason is false: The fundamental frequency of the closed organ pipe is not two times that of the open organ pipe; it is actually half. ### Final Answer - Assertion: True - Reason: False

To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion and the reason provided. ### Step 1: Understand the Assertion The assertion states that if a closed pipe and an open organ pipe are of the same length, then neither of their frequencies can be the same. ### Step 2: Understand the Frequencies of Closed and Open Pipes The fundamental frequency (first harmonic) of a closed organ pipe (which has one closed end) is given by the formula: \[ f_{closed} = \frac{V}{4L} \] ...
