An open pipe of length $L_1$ has a fundamental frequency $n_1$,and a closed pipe of length $L_2$ has a fundamental frequency $n_2$. If they are joined to form a single closed pipe of length $L = L_1 + L_2$,what is the fundamental frequency of the combined pipe?

  • A
    $n_1+n_2$
  • B
    $n_1-n_2$
  • C
    $\frac{n_1 n_2}{n_1+2 n_2}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 n_1 n_2}{n_1+2 n_2}$

$A$ pipe $20 \; cm$ long is closed at one end. Which harmonic mode of the pipe is resonantly excited by a $430 \; Hz$ source? Will the same source be in resonance with the pipe if both ends are open? (Speed of sound in air is $340 \; m/s$).

If $l_1$ and $l_2$ are the lengths of the air column for the first and second resonance when a tuning fork of frequency $n$ is sounded on a resonance tube,then the distance of the displacement antinode from the top end of the resonance tube is:

$A$ string fixed at both ends is in resonance in its $2^{nd}$ harmonic with a tuning fork of frequency $f_1$. Now,one end becomes free. If the frequency of the tuning fork is increased slowly from $f_1$,then again a resonance is obtained when the frequency is $f_2$. If in this case the string vibrates in the $n^{th}$ harmonic,then:

$A$ closed organ pipe of length $L_c$ and an open organ pipe of length $L_o$ contain different gases of densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ respectively. The compressibility of the gases is the same in both the pipes. The gases are vibrating in their first overtone with the same frequency. What is the length of the open organ pipe?
