The diagram given illustrates the waveform of a note produced by vibrations in an air column of length L. If the speed of sound in air is V, derive an expression for the frequency of the notes
A
\(\frac{V}{L}\)
B
\(\frac{5VL}{2}\)
C
\(\frac{5L}{4V}\)
D
\(\frac{5V}{4L}\)
correct option: d

L = (\frac{5\lambda}{4})

(\lambda = \frac{4L}{5})

But (\lambda = f\lambda)

f = (\frac{v}{\lambda} = \frac{v}{\frac{4L}{5}})

= (\frac{5v}{4L})
