A closed pipe of length22 cm, when excited by a1875 Hzsource forms standing waves. The number of pressure nodes formed in the pipe are [velocity of sound in air=330 m s-1]

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Velocity of sound=330 m s-1

Length of closed pipe=22 cm=22×10-m

The fundamental frequency of the stationary wave,

ν0=v4l=3304×22×10-2

=330×1024×22=30008

ν0=375 Hz

3ν0=375×3=1125 Hz

5ν0=5×375=1875 Hz

5thharmonic

Number of nodes=3

Note: In a closed pipe, odd harmonics are produced.
