Question

A pipe of length 20 cm is closed at one end. Which harmonic mode of the pipe is resonantly excited by a 425 Hz source? The speed of sound = 340 ms –1.

Solution

Correct option is

First harmonic

 

Let N be the frequency of the source and Vp that of the pth harmonic of a closed pipe. The source will resonantly excite that harmonic mode of the pipe for which  

                                

For any value of p = 1, 3, 5, … Now for a closed pipe we know that

                               

Therefore, for resonance,
