An open pipe is in resonance in 2nd harmonic with frequency f_1. Now one end of the tube is closed and frequency is increased to f_2 such that the resonance again occurs in nth harmonic. Choose the correct option.

Answer»

`n= 3f_(2)=(5)/(4)f_(1)`
`n=5, f_(2)=(5)/(4) f_(1)`
`n=3, f_(2)=(3)/(4)f_(1)`
`n=5, f_(2)=(3)/(4)f_(1)`

Solution :In case of open PIPE, frequency of second harmonics is,
`f_(1)=(v)/(lambda)=(v)/(L) "" [ lambda=L]`
In case of closed, pipe, frequency of `n^(TH)` harmonic,
`f_(2)=(mv)/(4L)` where n is odd number.
clearly `f_(2)=(n)/(4)f_(1)`
If `n=3, f_(2) lt f_(1)` which is not acceptable
In `n=5, f_(2)=(5)/(4)f_(1)` which is acceptable
