    A tuning fork vibrates with frequency \[256Hz\]and gives one best per second with the third normal mode of vibration of an open pipe. What is the length of the pipe? (Speed of sound of air is \[340m{{s}^{-1}}\])       [JEE Online 15-04-2018]

    A)  \[190cm\]                     

    B)  \[180cm\]

    C)  \[220cm\]                     

    D)  \[200cm\]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    [d] Frequency of tuning fork \[=256Hz\]
    Frequency of open pipe \[=256\pm 1Hz\]
    Frequency of third normal mode of vibration of an open pipe is\[v=\frac{3v}{2l}\]
    here \[l\text{ }=\]length of pipe
    \[\frac{3\times 340}{2\times l}=255\]
    \[l=200cm\]
