In the fundamental mode, the time required for a sound wave to reach the closed end of a pipe filled with air is $t$ seconds. What is the frequency of vibration of the air column? ($\lambda$ = wavelength of the wave)

  • A
    $\frac{1}{t}$
  • B
    $\frac{0.25}{t}$
  • C
    $\frac{1}{\lambda t}$
  • D
    $\frac{1}{4t}$

$A$ source of frequency $340 \,Hz$ is kept above a vertical cylindrical tube closed at the lower end. The length of the tube is $120 \,cm$. Water is slowly poured in just enough to produce resonance. Then, the minimum height (velocity of sound $= 340 \,m/s$) of the water level in the tube for that resonance is (in $\,m$)

An organ pipe of length $L$ is open at one end and closed at the other end. The wavelengths of the three lowest resonating frequencies that can be produced by this pipe are

In a resonance tube experiment,when the tube is filled with water up to a height of $17.0 \, cm$ from the bottom,it resonates with a given tuning fork. When the water level is raised,the next resonance with the same tuning fork occurs at a height of $24.5 \, cm$. If the velocity of sound in air is $330 \, m/s$,the tuning fork frequency is $...... \, Hz$.

$A$ closed organ pipe and an open organ pipe are tuned to the same fundamental frequency. What is the ratio of their lengths?
