MCQ
A closed organ pipe of length $1.2 \,\,m$ vibrates in its first overtone mode. The pressure variation is maximum at:
  • A
    $0.8 \,\,m$ from the open end
  • $0.4 \,\,m$ from the open end
  • C
    at the open end
  • D
    $1.0 \,\,m$ from the open end 

Answer

Correct option: B.
$0.4 \,\,m$ from the open end
b
in closed organ pipe in first overtone the pressure is maximum at $\frac{\lambda}{4}$ from the open end and total length will be equal to $\frac{\lambda \times 3}{4} .$ so,

$\frac{\lambda \times 3}{4}=1.2$

$\lambda=1.6 \mathrm{m}$

so pressure is maximum at $\frac{\lambda}{4}=0.4 \mathrm{m}$ from the open end
