Organ Pipes & Resonance Tube

In an organ pipe closed at one end produces a fundamental note of frequency ' $\nu$ '. The pipe is cut into two pipes of equal length. The fundamental frequencies produced in the two pipes are

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

Original closed pipe: $\nu=\frac{v}{4L}$ .
Piece with the closed end: closed pipe of length $\frac{L}{2}$ : $\frac{v}{4(L/2)}=2\nu$ .
Other piece is open at both ends, length $\frac{L}{2}$ : $\frac{v}{2(L/2)}=\frac{v}{L}=4\nu$ .
So the answer is (c) $2\nu, 4\nu$ .
