NEETPhysicsWaves and Sound
Assertion: If temperature is increased, fundamental frequency of an open pipe will increase. Reason: By increasing the temperature speed of sound wave will increase.
Options
- AIf both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
- BIf both Assertion and Reason are true but Reason is not the correct explanation of Assertion.
- CIf Assertion is true but Reason is false.
- DIf Assertion is false but Reason is true.
Correct answer
A. If both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation of Assertion.
Step-by-step solution
For an open pipe, (f= v 2 ). As temperature increases, speed of sound v increases, so the fundamental Trequency increases. Hence both Assetion and Reason are ture, and Reason correctly explains Assetion.
