- 1A uniform tube of length $60.5\,cm$ is held vertically with its lower end dipped in water. A sound source of frequency $500\,Hz$ sends sound waves into the tube. When the length of tube above water is $16\,cm$ and again when it is $50\,cm,$ the tube resonates with the source of sound. Two lowest frequencies (in $Hz$), to which tube will resonate when it is taken out of water, are (approximately).View Solution
