NEET 2018 Physics question
A tuning fork is used to produce resonance in a glass tube. The length of the air column in this tube can be adjusted by a variable piston. At room temperature of C two successive resonances are produced at 20 cm and 73 cm of column length. If the frequency of the tuning fork is 320 Hz, the velocity of sound in air at C is
Answer: (2)
Solution
In a closed air column, two successive resonances differ in length by half a wavelength: . , so $λ
