A tube closed at one end containing air produces fundamental note of frequency $512\, Hz$. If the tube is open at both the ends, the fundamental frequency will be
- 1024 Hz
- 256 Hz
- 1280 Hz
- 768 Hz.
The Correct Option is A
Solution and Explanation
We know that frequency of fundamental note for closed organ pipe $\left(n_{2}\right)=\frac{v}{2 l}$ and for open pipe $\left(n_{1}\right)=\frac{v}{4 l}$ or $n_{2}=2 n_{1}=2 \times 512$
$=1024 \,Hz$

As shown in the figures, a uniform rod $ OO' $ of length $ l $ is hinged at the point $ O $ and held in place vertically between two walls using two massless springs of the same spring constant. The springs are connected at the midpoint and at the top-end $ (O') $ of the rod, as shown in Fig. 1, and the rod is made to oscillate by a small angular displacement. The frequency of oscillation of the rod is $ f_1 $. On the other hand, if both the springs are connected at the midpoint of the rod, as shown in Fig. 2, and the rod is made to oscillate by a small angular displacement, then the frequency of oscillation is $ f_2 $. Ignoring gravity and assuming motion only in the plane of the diagram, the value of $\frac{f_1}{f_2}$ is:

Waves
Waves are a disturbance through which the energy travels from one point to another. Most acquainted are surface waves that tour on the water, but sound, mild, and the movement of subatomic particles all exhibit wavelike properties. inside the most effective waves, the disturbance oscillates periodically (see periodic movement) with a set frequency and wavelength.
Types of Waves:
Transverse Waves -
Waves in which the medium moves at right angles to the direction of the wave.
Examples of transverse waves:
- Water waves (ripples of gravity waves, not sound through water)
- Light waves
- S-wave earthquake waves
- Stringed instruments
- Torsion wave
The high point of a transverse wave is a crest. The low part is a trough.
Longitudinal Wave -
A longitudinal wave has the movement of the particles in the medium in the same dimension as the direction of movement of the wave.
Examples of longitudinal waves:
- Sound waves
- P-type earthquake waves
- Compression wave
