Question
State any two limitations of end correction.

Answer


Limitations of end correction :
1. Inner diameter of the tube must be uniform.
2. Effects of air flow and temperature outside the tube are ignored.
3. The prongs of the tuning fork should be perpendicular to the air column in the tube, with their tips at the centre of the tube and a small distance above the rim of the tube.
