$A$ source of sound placed at the open end of a resonance column sends an acoustic wave of pressure amplitude ${\rho _0}$ inside the tube. If the atmospheric pressure is ${\rho _A},$ then the ratio of maximum and minimum pressure at the closed end of the tube will be

  • A
    $\frac{{\rho _A + \rho _0}}{{\rho _A - \rho _0}}$
  • B
    $\frac{{\rho _A + 2\rho _0}}{{\rho _A - 2\rho _0}}$
  • C
    $\frac{{\rho _A}}{{\rho _0}}$
  • D
    $\frac{{\rho _A + 0.5\rho _0}}{{\rho _A - 0.5\rho _0}}$

In an experiment to determine the velocity of sound in air at room temperature using a resonance tube,the first resonance is observed when the air column has a length of $20.0 \,cm$ for a tuning fork of frequency $400 \,Hz$. The velocity of sound at room temperature is $336 \,ms^{-1}$. The third resonance is observed when the air column has a length of ......... $cm$.

When the air column of a resonance tube is vibrated together with a tuning fork,$3$ beats are heard per second,either the temperature of the air column is $51^{\circ} C$ or $16^{\circ} C$. The frequency of the tuning fork is (in $Hz$)

The fundamental frequencies of vibrations of an air column in a pipe open at both ends and in a pipe closed at one end are $n_1$ and $n_2$ respectively. If both pipes have the same length $L$,then:

In a closed organ pipe,the frequency of the fundamental note is $30 \,Hz$. $A$ certain amount of water is now poured into the organ pipe so that the fundamental frequency increases to $110 \,Hz$. If the organ pipe has a cross-sectional area of $2 \,cm^2$,the amount of water poured into the organ tube is . . . . . . $g$. (Take the speed of sound in air as $330 \,m/s$)

In a closed organ pipe, the number of nodes formed in the fifth and ninth harmonics are respectively:
