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
    $\frac{L}{4}$
  • B
    $\frac{L}{2}$
  • C
    $L$
  • D
    $2L$

Four open organ pipes of different lengths and different gases at the same temperature are shown in the figure. Let $f_A$,$f_B$,$f_C$,and $f_D$ be their fundamental frequencies. Then: [Take $\gamma_{CO_2} = 7/5$]

In the fundamental mode,the time required for a sound wave to travel from the open end to the closed end of an air-filled pipe is $t$ seconds. What is the frequency of vibration of the air column? (Neglect end correction)

The fundamental frequency of a pipe is $100 \ Hz$ and the next two frequencies are $300 \ Hz$ and $500 \ Hz$. Then:

$A$ student is performing the experiment of a resonance column. The diameter of the column tube is $6 \, cm$. The frequency of the tuning fork is $504 \, Hz$. The speed of sound at the given temperature is $336 \, m/s$. The zero of the meter scale coincides with the top end of the resonance column tube. The reading of the water level in the column when the first resonance occurs is..........$cm$.

$A$ closed pipe and an open pipe have their first overtones identical in frequency. Their lengths are in the ratio:
