The fundamental frequencies of vibrations of an air column in a pipe open at both ends and in a pipe closed at one end are $n_1$ and $n_2$ respectively. If both pipes have the same length $L$,then:

  • A
    $n_1 = n_2$
  • B
    $n_1 = 2n_2$
  • C
    $2n_1 = n_2$
  • D
    $3n_1 = 4n_2$

Discuss stationary waves in pipes and explain the types of pipes.

An organ pipe $P_1$, closed at one end and containing a gas of density $\rho_1$ is vibrating in its first harmonic. Another organ pipe $P_2$, open at both ends and containing a gas of density $\rho_2$ is vibrating in its third harmonic. Both the pipes are in resonance with a given tuning fork. If the compressibility of gases is equal in both pipes, the ratio of the lengths of $P_1$ and $P_2$ is (assume the given gases to be monoatomic)

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. The frequency of vibration of the air column is:

Consider the following statements about stationary waves:
