If sound travels in air with the speed of 340ms−1340ms^{- 1}, then the number of tones present in an open organ pipe of length 2m2m for a& maximum frequency of 12001200 Hz, are

Options

  1. A1717
  2. B1111
  3. C99
  4. D1414

Correct answer

D. 1414

Step-by-step solution

Given, speed of sound, v=340ms−1v = 340ms^{- 1}
Length of open organ pipe, l=2ml = 2m

Frequency, f=1200Hzf = 1200Hz
For open organ pipe,

Fundamental frequency, f0=v2l=3402×2=85{f}_{0} = \dfrac{v}{2l} = \dfrac{340}{2 \times 2} = 85

∴∴ Number of tones present in the open organ pipe
=ff0=120085=14.11≃14= \dfrac{f}{f0} = \dfrac{1200}{85} = 14. 11 ≃ 14
