A tuning fork with a frequency of produces resonance in a resonance column tube with the upper end open and the lower end closed by the water surface. Successive resonances are observed at lengths of , , and . The speed of the sound in the air is:
- A
- B
- C
- D
Solution & Step-by-step Explanation
In a closed pipe (resonance column), the distance between successive resonances is ...Speed of sound ..Check with the next resonance: , which is consistent.
