A closed organ pipe has length 'l'. The ...

A closed organ pipe has length `'l'`. The air in it is vibrating in `3^(rd)` overtone with maximum amplitude `'a'`. Find the amplitude at a distance of `l//7` from closed end of the pipe.

A

` a `

B

` ( a ) /( 2 ) `

C

` (sqrt3 a ) / ( 2 ) `

D

` ( 1 ) /( sqrt2 ) a `

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
For ` 3^(rd) ` overtone

` l = ( 7lamda ) /( 4) , ( lamda ) / ( 4) = ( l ) /( 7) `
Hence the amplitude at P at a distance ` ( l) /( 7) ` from closed end is 'a' because there is an antinode at that point.

A simple pendulm has a length L and a bob of mass M. The bob is vibrating with amplitude a .What is the maximum tension in the string?

A string 25cm long and having a mass of 2.5 gm is under tension. A pipe closed at one end is 40cm long. When the string is set vibrating in its first overtone and the air in the pipe in its fundamental frequency, 8 beats per second are heard. It is observed that decreasing the tension in the string decreases beat frequency. If the speed of sound in air is 320m//s , find the tension in the string.

If second overtone of closed pipe and third overtone of open pipe are equal, then find ratio of lengths of both the pipes.

An organ pipe of length L open at both ends is found to vibrate in its first harmonic when sounded with a tuning fork of 480 Hz. What should be the length of a pipe closed at one end, so that it also vibrates in its first harmonic with the same tuning fork ?

A closed organ pipe of length L and an open organ pipe contain gass of densities rho_(1) and rho_(2) , respectively. The compressibility of gass are equal in both the pipes. Both the pipes are vibrating in their first overtone with same frequency . The length of the open orange pipe is (a) (L)/(3) (4l) / (3) (c ) (4l)/(3)sqrt((rho_(1))/(rho_(2))) (d) (4l)/(3)sqrt((rho_(2))/(rho_(1)))

The second overtone of an open pipe has the same frequency as the first overtone of a closed pipe 2 m long. The length of the open pipe is

A uniform rope of length L is pulled by a constant force F. What is the tension in the rope at a distance l from the end where it is applied?

A chain of mass M and length L is held vertical by fixing its upper end to a rigid support. The tension in the chain at a distance y from the rigid support is:
