The fundamental frequency of an open pipe is 100 Hz . If the bottom end of the pipe is closed and $\frac{1}{3} \mathrm{rd}$ of the pipe is filled with water, then the fundamental frequency of the pipe is
  1. 200 Hz
  2. 100 Hz
  3. 75 Hz
  4. 150 Hz

Solution


For open organ pipe, $\gamma_0=\frac{v}{2 L}=100 \mathrm{~Hz}$ For closed organ pipe $\begin{aligned} & \frac{2 \mathrm{~L}}{3}=\frac{\lambda}{4} \\ & \therefore \quad \lambda=\frac{8 \mathrm{~L}}{3} \end{aligned}$ $\therefore$ Fundamental frequency $\gamma_0^1=\frac{\mathrm{v}}{\lambda}=\frac{\mathrm{v}}{8 \mathrm{~L}}=\frac{3 \mathrm{v}}{8 \mathrm{~L}}=\frac{3}{4}\left(\frac{\mathrm{v}}{2 \mathrm{~L}}\right)=\frac{3}{4} \times 100=75 \mathrm{~Hz}$
