In the experiment for the determination of the speed of sound in air using the resonance column method, the length of the air column that resonates in the fundamental mode, with a tuning fork is `0.1m`. When this length is changed to `0.35m`, the same tuning fork resonates with the first overtone. Calculate the end correction.A. 0.012 mB. 0.025 mC. 0.05 mD. 0.024 m

Answer» Correct Answer - B
Let `Delta l` be the end correction
Given that, fundamental tone for a length `0.1 m` = first overtone for the length 0.35 m
`(v)/(4(0.1+Deltal))=(3v)/(4(0.35+Deltal))`
we get `Deltal=0.025m=2.5 xx 10^(-2)m`.
