MCQ
An organ pipe $40\,cm$ long is open at both ends. The speed of sound in air is $360\,ms ^{-1}$. The frequency of the second harmonic is $...........\,Hz$.
  • A
    $800$
  • $900$
  • C
    $700$
  • D
    $600$

Answer

Correct option: B.
$900$
b
For second harmonic of open organ pipe

$L =\lambda$

So frequency of vibration is $f =\frac{ V }{\lambda}$

$f =\frac{ V }{\lambda}=\frac{ V }{ L }=\frac{360}{\frac{40}{100}}=900\,Hz$
