Q60 / 68 · NEST (NISER) 2023 (Session 2) · Physics

Consider the following four cylindrical tubes $(P, Q, R, S)$ all of equal radii. The tubes $Q$ and $R$ are of length $l$. The tubes $P$ and $S$ are of length 1.5 . If the fundamental frequencies are $\nu_P, \nu_Q, \nu_R$ and $\nu_S$, respectively, then the correct option is
Figure

  • A
    $\nu_R \gt \nu_S \gt \nu_P \gt \nu_Q$
  • Correct answer
    B
    $\nu_R \gt \nu_S \gt \nu_Q \gt \nu_P$
  • C
    $\nu_S \gt \nu_R \gt \nu_Q \gt \nu_P$
  • D
    $\nu_R \gt \nu_P \gt \nu_S \gt \nu_Q$

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'B'.
