Organ Pipes & Resonance Tube

The end correction of a resonance column is 1 cm. If the shortest length resonating with the tuning fork is 10 cm, the next resonating length should be:

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

  1. First resonance: l1+e=λ4⇒10+1=11 cml_1 + e = \frac{\lambda}{4} \Rightarrow 10 + 1 = 11\text{ cm}, so λ=44 cm\lambda = 44\text{ cm}.
  2. Second resonance: l2+e=3λ4=33 cml_2 + e = \frac{3\lambda}{4} = 33\text{ cm}
  3. l2=33−1=32 cml_2 = 33 - 1 = 32\text{ cm}
  4. So the answer is (b) 32 cm.
