In a resonance column experiment, a tuning fork resonates in the fundamental mode with an air column of length 0.16 m and in the first overtone with a length of 0.52 m. Calculate the end correction of the tube.

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

Fundamental: $f = \frac{v}{4 ( l _{1} + e )}$

First overtone: $f = \frac{3 v}{4 ( l _{2} + e )}$

Equating: $3 (0.16 + e) = 0.52 + e$

$2 e = 0.04$ m

$e = 0.02$ m
