In an experiment to determine the velocity of sound in air at room temperature using a resonance tube, the first resonance is observed when the air column has a length of20.0 cmfor a tuning fork of frequency400 Hzis used. The velocity of the sound at room temperature is336 m s-1. The third resonance is observed when the air column has a length of _____cm

Answer:
104.00
Solution:

Wavelength of wave λ=vf=336400=84 cm

At first resonance

λ4=l+e844=20+e, where, e is end correction.

e=1
So third resonance length

5λ4=l2+e

521=l2+1

l2=104 cm
