A tube closed at one end containing air produces when excited the fundamental note of frequency $512\text{ Hz}$. If the tube is open at both ends, the fundamental frequency that can be excited is (in Hz)
  1. 1024
  2. 512
  3. 256
  4. 128

Solution

Fundamental frequency of closed pipe is $\frac{v}{4l}$ and that of open pipe is $\frac{v}{2l}$ which is two times that of the closed pipe. i.e. $1024\text{ Hz}$.
