An open pipe is in resonance in 2nd harmonic with frequency f 1 . Now one end of the tube is closed and frequency is increased to f 2 such that the resonance again occurs in nth harmonic. Choose the correct option:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsD
Fundamental harmonic of open organ pipe is given by:

as tube vibrates in second harmonic, hence
if one end is close, it gives only odd harmonics & Fundamental frequency

other harmonics are (
), (
) etc.
One frequency starts increasing the first higher harmonic that is resonated is (
)
if
, then 
However here is a snag. The frequency is increased from (
) hence (
).
is not greater than
.
is the answer
Answer is
and
