A) 220 Hz
B) 440 Hz
C) 880 Hz
D) 1760 Hz
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Fundamental frequency for a closed organ pipe is\[n=\frac{v}{4l}\] When one-fourth of the pipe is filled with water, then New length \[l=l-\frac{l}{4}=\frac{3l}{4}\] \[\therefore \] New frequency \[n=\frac{v}{4l}\] \[=\frac{v}{4\times \frac{3l}{4}}=\frac{v}{3l}\] \[\frac{n}{n}=\frac{v/3l}{v/4l}\] \[n=\frac{4}{3}n\] \[=\frac{4}{3}\times 220=\frac{830}{3}\,Hz\] For closed organ pipe, first overtone \[=3\times \] fundamental frequency = 3n \[=3\times \frac{880}{3}=880\,Hz\]You need to login to perform this action.
