The maximum variation of pressure in an open organ pipe of length l vibrating in fundamental mode is at.
A
ends
B
middle of pipe
C
from centre
D
from centre
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
In an open pipe the ends are points of displacement antinodes and hence pressure node. The midpoint (for fundamental mode) is a point of displacement node and hence pressure antinode. (variation of pressure is maximum at pressure antinode and zero at pressure - node).
