If the temperature increases, then what happens to the frequency of the sound produced by the organ pipe?

  1. A increases
  2. B decreases
  3. C unchanged
  4. D not definite
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) increases

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Due to rise in temperature, the speed of sound increases. Since frequency \(n=\frac{v}{\lambda}\) and \(\lambda\) remains unchanged. Hence frequency \(n\) increases.
