JEE Advanced · Physics · 16. Waves & Sound

A source, approaching with speed u towards the open end of a stationary pipe of length L, is emitting a sound of frequency fs. The farther end of the pipe is closed. The speed of sound in air is v and f0 is the fundamental frequency of the pipe. For which of the following combination(s) of u and fs, will the sound reaching the pipe lead to a resonance?

  1. A u=0.8v and fs=f0
  2. B u=0.8v and fs=2f0
  3. C u=0.8v and fs=0.5 f0
  4. D u=0.5v and fs=1.5 f0
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) u=0.5v and fs=1.5 f0

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Consider a tuning fork as a source of sound which is moving towards the stationary pipe with velocity u. According to the Doppler effect ,
