Q61 / 90 · JEE Main 2012 (19 May Online) · Physics
A uniform tube of length $60.5 \mathrm{~cm}$ is held vertically with its lower end dipped in water. A sound source of frequency $500 \mathrm{~Hz}$ sends sound waves into the tube. When the length of tube above water is $16 \mathrm{~cm}$ and again when it is $50 \mathrm{~cm}$, the tube resonates with the source of sound. Two lowest frequencies (in $\mathrm{Hz}$ ), to which tube will resonate when it is taken out of water, are (approximately).
- A281,562
- B281,843
- C276,552
- Correct answerD272,544
Solution
Two lowest frequencies to which tube will resonates are $272 \mathrm{~Hz}$ and $544 \mathrm{~Hz}$.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
