Solution: -
(a)
Step 1:
v = λf
where,
f = fundamental frequency
v = speed of sound
λ = wavelength of wave
Explanation:
The fundamental frequency is the lowest frequency that
any vibrating object can have.
Step 2:
Distance between node and anti-node,
l = λ/4 -----------(1)
v = λf -----------(2)
Explanation:
Since the cylinder is closed at one end, the wave formed
nodes at closed end and anti-node at open end.
Final Answer:
The length of cylinder when it is closed at one end is 0.166
m.
(b)
Step 1:
v = λf
where,
f = fundamental frequency
v = speed of sound
λ = wavelength of wave
Explanation:
The fundamental frequency is the lowest frequency that
any vibrating object can have.
Step 2:
Distance between two anti-nodes,
l = λ/2 -----------(3)
v = λf -----------(4)
Final Answer:
The length of cylinder when it is open at both ends is 0.332
m.
