An organ pipe open at both ends has two successive harmonics with frequencies of 220 Hz and 240 Hz. What is the length of the pipe? The speed of sound is 343 m/s in air.

The  length is  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The frequencies of the two successive harmonics are ,  

   The speed of sound in the air is  

Generally the frequency of a given harmonic is mathematically represented as

Here  n defines  the position of the harmonics

Now since the position of both harmonic is not know but we know that they successive then we can represented them mathematically as

and  

So

=>  

=>  

answer: the correct answer id option(d).

explanation:

snell's law refraction:

the angle of refraction =

the angle of incidence =

refractive index of air = = 1

refractive index of glycerol = 1.47

from the given options, the most closest answer to 63.72° is 65° of option (d).
