An organ pipe of length $L$ open at both ends is found to vibrate in its first harmonic when sounded with a tuning fork of $480 \ Hz$. What should be the length of a pipe closed at one end,so that it also vibrates in its first harmonic with the same tuning fork?

  • A
    $L/2$
  • B
    $L$
  • C
    $2L$
  • D
    $L/4$

An organ pipe $P_1$, closed at one end and containing a gas of density $\rho_1$ is vibrating in its first harmonic. Another organ pipe $P_2$, open at both ends and containing a gas of density $\rho_2$ is vibrating in its third harmonic. Both the pipes are in resonance with a given tuning fork. If the compressibility of gases is equal in both pipes, the ratio of the lengths of $P_1$ and $P_2$ is (assume the given gases to be monoatomic)
