Q.
When an open pipe is closed from one end then the third overtone of the closed pipe is higher in frequency by 150Hz than the second overtone of an open pipe. The fundamental frequency of the open-end pipe will be
Let f0=2Lv0 be the fundamental frequency of the open pipe ∴ is second overtone is 3f0=2L3v0
Let f=4Lv0 be the fundamental frequency of close pipe.
And third overtone of the organ pipe closed at one end only is, (f3)closed=47Lv0
As given 4L7v0−2L3v0=150 (47−46)Lv0=150 ∴4Lv0=150 2Lv0=300Hz
