Question

Find the fundamental frequency and the frequencies of the first two overtones of a pipe 45.0 cm long if the pipe is closed at one end. Use v=344m/s.

Open in App
Solution

We have , v=344m/s,L=45cm=0.45m

Fundamental frequency of a closed organ pipe is given by ,
f1=v/4L=344/(4×0.45)=191.1Hz

therefore ,frequency of first overtone ,
f2=3f1=3×191.1=573.3Hz

Frequency of second overtone ,
f3=5f1=5×191.1=955.5Hz
