A pipe of length 1.5m closed at one end is filled with gas and resonates in its fundamental mode with a tuning fork. Another open organ pipe of same dimensions filled with air resonates in its fundamental mode with the same tuning fork. If this experiment is performed at 30° C, then the speed of sound at 0 °C in the same gas is (Speed of sound in air is 360 rn/s )
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
For open pipe 
For the closed at one end pipe, let the velocity of sound in gas at 
be 
Since same tuning fork is used frequency will be same and thus,
