    If \[{{\lambda }_{1}},\,\,{{\lambda }_{2}}\,\,and\,\,{{\lambda }_{3}}\] are wavelength of waves giving resonance with fundamental, first and second overtones respectively of a closed organ pipe, then the ratio of wavelengths

    A)  \[1 : 3 : 5\]                   

    B)  \[5 : 3 :1\]

    C)  \[15 :~5 : 3\]               

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    As,    \[L=\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{4}\] \[{{\lambda }_{1}}\,\,=\,\,4L\] And   \[L=\frac{3{{\lambda }_{2}}}{4}\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,{{\lambda }_{2}}=\frac{4}{3}\,L\] And  \[L=\frac{5{{\lambda }_{3}}}{4}\,\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,\,{{\lambda }_{3}}=\frac{4}{5}\,L\] Now, \[{{\lambda }_{1}}:{{\lambda }_{2}}:{{\lambda }_{3}}\,\,=\,\,4:\frac{4}{3}:\frac{4}{5}\,\,=\,\,1:\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{5}\] \[=\,\,15:5:3\]
