The ratio of frequencies of fundamental harmonic produced by an open pipe to that of closed pipe having the same length is:
Options
- A3 : 1
- B1 : 2
- C2 : 1
- D1 : 3
Correct answer
C. 2 : 1
Step-by-step solution
Fundamental frequency of open pipe is given by, f o p e n = v 2 l . Fundamental frequency of closed pipe is given by, f c l o s e d = v 4 l . Therefore, f o p e n f c l o s e d = v 2 l × 4 l v ⇒ f o p e n : f c l o s e d = 2 : 1
