The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of standing sound waves in a pipe that is 0.8 m long, open at one end and closed at the other, we will determine the positions of displacement antinodes and pressure antinodes for the fundamental frequency and the first two overtones. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Pipe Configuration**: - The pipe is closed at one end and open at the other. This means that at the closed end (let's call it point A), there will be a displacement node (minimum displacement) and at the open end (point B), there will be a displacement antinode (maximum displacement). 2. **Finding the Wavelength**: - For a pipe closed at one end, the fundamental frequency (first harmonic) has a length \( L \) related to the wavelength \( \lambda \) by the formula: \[ L = \frac{n \lambda}{4} \] where \( n \) is the harmonic number (1 for fundamental, 2 for first overtone, etc.). - For the fundamental frequency (n=1): \[ L = \frac{1 \lambda}{4} \implies \lambda = 4L \] - For the first overtone (n=3): \[ L = \frac{3 \lambda}{4} \implies \lambda = \frac{4L}{3} \] 3. **Calculating the Wavelengths**: - Given \( L = 0.8 \, \text{m} \): - For the fundamental frequency: \[ \lambda_1 = 4 \times 0.8 = 3.2 \, \text{m} \] - For the first overtone: \[ \lambda_2 = \frac{4 \times 0.8}{3} = \frac{3.2}{3} \approx 1.067 \, \text{m} \] 4. **Finding Displacement Antinodes**: - The displacement antinodes occur at: - Fundamental (n=1): \( x = \frac{\lambda_1}{4} \) and \( x = L \) \[ x_1 = \frac{3.2}{4} = 0.8 \, \text{m} \quad (at \, open \, end) \] - First overtone (n=3): \( x = \frac{3\lambda_2}{4} \) and \( x = \frac{\lambda_2}{4} \) \[ x_2 = \frac{3 \times 1.067}{4} \approx 0.800 \, \text{m} \quad (at \, open \, end) \] \[ x_3 = \frac{1.067}{4} \approx 0.267 \, \text{m} \quad (first \, displacement \, antinode) \] 5. **Finding Pressure Antinodes**: - Pressure antinodes occur at the displacement nodes: - For the fundamental frequency: \[ x = 0 \, \text{m} \quad (closed \, end) \] - For the first overtone: \[ x = \frac{\lambda_2}{2} \approx \frac{1.067}{2} \approx 0.5335 \, \text{m} \quad (first \, pressure \, antinode) \] ### Summary of Positions: - **Displacement Antinodes**: - Fundamental: \( 0.8 \, \text{m} \) - First overtone: \( 0.267 \, \text{m} \) and \( 0.8 \, \text{m} \) - **Pressure Antinodes**: - Fundamental: \( 0 \, \text{m} \) - First overtone: \( 0.5335 \, \text{m} \)
