The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to analyze both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) provided. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Assertion (A)**: - The assertion states that an open organ pipe of a certain length has the same fundamental frequency as a closed organ pipe of half that length. - Let's denote the length of the open organ pipe as \( L \) and the length of the closed organ pipe as \( L/2 \). 2. **Fundamental Frequency of Open Organ Pipe**: - The formula for the fundamental frequency (\( f \)) of an open organ pipe is given by: \[ f_{\text{open}} = \frac{V}{2L} \] - Here, \( V \) is the speed of sound in air. 3. **Fundamental Frequency of Closed Organ Pipe**: - The formula for the fundamental frequency of a closed organ pipe is: \[ f_{\text{closed}} = \frac{V}{4L_{\text{closed}}} \] - Since the length of the closed organ pipe is \( L/2 \), we substitute this into the formula: \[ f_{\text{closed}} = \frac{V}{4 \cdot (L/2)} = \frac{V}{2L} \] 4. **Comparison of Frequencies**: - From the calculations, we find: \[ f_{\text{open}} = \frac{V}{2L} \quad \text{and} \quad f_{\text{closed}} = \frac{V}{2L} \] - This shows that the fundamental frequencies of both pipes are equal, confirming the assertion. 5. **Understanding the Reason (R)**: - The reason states that in the case of an open organ pipe, antinodes are formed at both ends, while in a closed organ pipe, one end is an antinode and the other end is a node. - This statement is true and describes the boundary conditions for both types of pipes accurately. 6. **Conclusion**: - Both the assertion (A) and the reason (R) are correct. - However, the reason does not explain why the frequencies are the same, thus the correct answer is that both statements are true, but the reason does not adequately support the assertion. ### Final Answer: Both assertion and reason are correct, but the reason does not explain the assertion.
