A closed organ pipe (closed at one end) is excited so as to support the third overtone. It is then found that there are in the pipe:
A spool consists a cylinder of radius $R_1$ wraped with thread and its end caps have radius $R_2$ as shown in the end view illustrated in figure. The mass of the spool, including the thread, is $m$ , and its moment of inertia about an axis through its center is $I$ . The spool is placed on a rough horizontal surface so that it rolls without slipping. When a force $\vec T$ acting to the right is applied to the free end of the thread. Friction force exerted by the surface on the spool is given by
