Question

A pipe open at both the ends has a fundamental frequency of 600 Hz. The first overtone of a pipe closed at one end has the same frequency as the first overtone of the open pipe. How long are the two pipes?

(Given: v = 330 m/s)

Solution

Data: Open pipe, n0 = 600 Hz, nc, 1 = n0, 1 (first overtones)

For an open pipe, the fundamental frequency,

n0 = `"v"/("2L"_"0")`

∴ The length of the open pipe is

L0 = `"v"/("2n"_"0")=330/(2xx600)` = 0.275 m

For the open pipe, the frequency of the first overtone is

2n0 = 2 x 600 = 1200 Hz

For the pipe closed at one end, the frequency of the first overtone is `(3"v")/"L"_"0"`

By the data, `"3v"/"4L"` = 1200

∴ LC = `(3xx330)/(4xx1200)` = 0.206 m

The pipe is 27.5 cm in length when open on both ends and 20.6 cm when closed on one end.
