A closed orgon pipe and an open orgon pipe are tuned to the same fundamental frequency. What is the ratio of their lengths?
Options
- A1: 2
- B2: 1
- C2: 3
- D4: 3
Correct answer
A. 1: 2
Step-by-step solution
Avoiding end correction, the length of the closed organ pipe is l₁= ₁ 4 or ₁=4 l₁ The length of open organ pipe is l₂= ₂ 2 or ₂=2 l₂ Here, n₁=n₂ So, v ₁ = v ₂ or v 4 l₁ = v 2 l₂ Therefore, l₁: l₂=1: 2
