Question on: JAMB Physics - 1994

A pipe of length 45cm is closed at the end. Calculate the fundamental frequency of the sound wave generated in the pipe if the velocity of sound in air is 360ms-1 [Neglect end correction]
A
5.5Hz
B
148.5Hz
C
200.0Hz
D
550.0Hz

Correct Option: C
\(\lambda\) = 4L = 4 X 45 = 180cm

F = \(\frac {V}{\lambda}\)

= \(\frac {360}{180 \times 10^{-2}}\)

= 200Hz
