When an air column in a pipe open at both ends vibrates such that four antinodes and three nodes are formed, then the corresponding mode of vibration is
- A first overtone
- B second overtone
- C fourth overtone
- D third overtone
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) second overtone
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation

\(
\text {Since } \mathrm{L}=\frac{3 \lambda}{2} \text {, it is third harmonic or second overtone. }
