  • A
    $11$
  • B
    $15$
  • C
    $16$

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)

In an open organ pipe, $v_3$ and $v_6$ are the $3^{\text{rd}}$ and $6^{\text{th}}$ harmonic frequencies, respectively. If $v_6 - v_3 = 2200 \text{ Hz}$, then the length of the pipe is . . . . . . mm. (Take the velocity of sound in air as $330 \text{ m/s}$.)
