In a pipe closed at one end, air column is vibrating in its second overtone. The column has
- A three nodes and three antinodes.
- B three nodes and four antinodes.
- C two nodes and three antinodes.
- D four nodes and three antinodes.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) three nodes and three antinodes.
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The second overtone in a pipe closed at one end corresponds to the 5th harmonic. For the 5th harmonic, there are 3 nodes and 3 antinodes.
