$A$ tuning fork of frequency '$n$' is held near the open end of a tube which is dipped in water and length of the tube is adjusted until resonance occurs. If the two shortest lengths that produce resonance are $l_1$ and $l_2$, the speed of sound in air is (neglect end correction)

  • A
    $2n(l_2 - l_1)$
  • B
    $n(l_2 - l_1)$
  • C
    $\frac{n}{2}(l_2 - l_1)$
  • D
    $\frac{2n}{(l_2 - l_1)}$

$A$ student performed an experiment to measure the speed of sound in air using the resonance air-column method. Two resonances in the air-column were obtained by lowering the water level. The resonance with the shorter air-column is the first resonance and that with the longer air-column is the second resonance. Then,

If $L_1$ and $L_2$ are the lengths of the first and second resonating air columns in a resonance tube,then the wavelength of the note produced is

An organ pipe $P_1$,closed at one end,is vibrating in its first harmonic. Another pipe $P_2$,open at both ends,is vibrating in its third harmonic. Both are in resonance with a given tuning fork. The ratio of the lengths of $P_1$ and $P_2$ is:

$A$ pipe closed at one end has a length of $83 \ cm$. The number of possible natural oscillations of the air column whose frequencies lie below $1000 \ Hz$ are (velocity of sound in air $= 332 \ m/s$).

$A$ pipe of $30 \text{ cm}$ long and open at both ends produces harmonics. Which harmonic mode of the pipe resonates with a $1.1 \text{ kHz}$ source? (Given: speed of sound in air $v = 330 \text{ ms}^{-1}$)
