A copper rod of length 1.0 m is clamped at its middle point. Find the frequencies between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz at which standing longitudinal waves can be set up in the rod. The speed of sound in copper is `3.8 km s^-1`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A, C
Length of the wire =1.0 m
For fundamental frequency
`lamda/2=I`
`rarr lamda=2I=2xx1=2m`
`Here given n=3.8 km/s=3800m/s`
`we know v=nlamda`
`rarr n=3800/2=1.9kH` ,
So standing frequency between 20 Hz and 20 kHz which will be heard are
`=nxx1.9kHz`
where n=0,1,2,3,.........10.
