Discuss stationary waves in pipes and explain the types of pipes.
(N/A) Stationary waves are produced in an air column inside a pipe due to the superposition of incident and reflected waves of the same frequency and amplitude traveling in opposite directions.
Pipes are classified into two types:
$(1)$ Open Pipe: $A$ pipe that is open at both ends. In this case,antinodes are formed at both open ends. Example: Flute.
$(2)$ Closed Pipe: $A$ pipe that is open at one end and closed at the other. In this case,an antinode is formed at the open end and a node is formed at the closed end. Example: $A$ tube partially filled with water.

View Solution$A$ closed organ pipe of length $L_c$ and an open organ pipe of length $L_o$ contain different gases of densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ respectively. The compressibility of the gases is the same in both the pipes. The gases are vibrating in their first overtone with the same frequency. What is the length of the open organ pipe?
