Question

An air column, closed at one end and open at the other, resonates with a tuning fork when the smallest length of the column is 50 cm. The next larger length of the column resonating with the same tuning fork is:
  1. 66.7 cm
  2. 150 cm
  3. 100 cm
  4. 200 cm

A
150 cm
B
66.7 cm
C
100 cm
D
200 cm

Q5
An air column in a tube 32 cm long, closed at one end, is in resonance with a tuning fork. The air column in another tube, open at both ends, of length 66 cm is in resonance with another tuning fork. When these two tuning forks are sounded together, they produce 8 beats per second. Then the frequencies of the two tuning forks are:
(Consider fundamental frequencies only)
