The ratio of frequencies of the second overtone produced by an open pipe to that of closed pipe having the same length is
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
B.
Step-by-step solution
For an open pipe of length , the frequency of the -th harmonic is .
The second overtone corresponds to the third harmonic ().
For a closed pipe of length , the frequency of the -th harmonic is , where is an odd integer.
The second overtone corresponds to the fifth harmonic ().
The ratio of their frequencies is:
