प्रश्न

An organ pipe of length L open at both ends is found to vibrate in its first harmonic when sounded with a tuning fork of 480 Hz. What should be the length of a pipe closed at one end, so that it also vibrates in its first harmonic with the same tuning fork?

उत्तर


For the first harmonic of open organ pipe L = `λ/2`

⇒ λ = 2L

⇒ `v/f_0` = 2L

⇒ `(f_0)_"open" = v/(2L)`

Where v is the speed of the sound wave in air.


For the first harmonic of closed organ pipe L' = `λ/4`

⇒ λ = 4L'

⇒ `v/f_0` = 4L'

⇒ `(f_0)_"close" = v/(4L^')`

⇒ `v/(2L) = v/(4L^')`  .......[∵ Speed remains constant]

⇒ `L^'/L = 2/4 = 1/4`

⇒ `L^' = L/2`
