What is the base frequency if a pipe gives notes of frequencies 425, 255 and 595 and decide whether it is closed at one end or open at both ends?

A

17, closed

B

85, closed

C

17, open

D

85, open

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
For closed pipe, only odd harmonics are present
i.e. `f_(1),f_(3),f_(5)....`
`3f_(1)=255impliesf_(1)=85`
`5f_(1)=85xx5=425,7f_(1)=85xx7=595`
