(C) For a tube closed at one end, the frequencies of harmonics are given by $f_n = n \frac{v}{4L}$, where $n = 1, 3, 5, ...$ are odd integers. The fifth harmonic corresponds to $n = 5$.The wavelength $\lambda$ is given by $\lambda = \frac{4L}{n} = \frac{4 	imes 50 \ cm}{5} = 40 \ cm$.The standing wave equation for a closed pipe (taking the open end at $x = 0$) is $y = A \sin(kx) \cos(\omega t)$, where $k = \frac{2\pi}{\lambda} = \frac{2\pi}{40} = \frac{\pi}{20} \ rad/cm$.The particle at the open end $(x = 0)$ is at a node of the displacement wave (or antinode of pressure), but in terms of displacement amplitude, the open end is an antinode. However, the standard equation $y = A \sin(kx) \cos(\omega t)$ assumes $x=0$ is a node. For an open end at $x=0$, the displacement is $y = A \cos(kx) \cos(\omega t)$.At $x = 0$, $y_1 = A \cos(0) \cos(\omega t) = A \cos(\omega t)$.At $x = 42 \ cm$, $y_2 = A \cos(k 	imes 42) \cos(\omega t) = A \cos(\frac{\pi}{20} 	imes 42) \cos(\omega t) = A \cos(2.1\pi) \cos(\omega t) = A \cos(2\pi + 0.1\pi) \cos(\omega t) = A \cos(0.1\pi) \cos(\omega t)$.Since both particles oscillate in phase (the cosine terms have the same sign), the phase difference is $0^{\circ}$.

An air column in a tube of length $L = 50 \ cm$, closed at one end, is vibrating in its fifth harmonic. The phase difference between a particle at the open end and a particle at $42 \ cm$ from the open end is: (in $^{\circ}$)
