The frequency of the first overtone of a closed pipe of length \(l_{1}\) is equal to that of the first. overtone of an open pipe of length \(l_{2}\). The ratio of their lengths \(\left(l_{1}: l_{2}\right)\) is

  1. A \(2: 3\)
  2. B \(4: 5\)
  3. C \(3: 5\)
  4. D \(3: 4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(3: 4\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Here, \(\quad v_{1}=\frac{(2 n-1)}{4 l_{1}} v\) \[ v_{2}=\frac{n}{2 l_{2}} v \] Hence, \(y_{1}=v_{2}\) \[ \frac{l_{1}}{l_{2}}=\frac{3}{4} \]
