    5 beat/s are produced on blowing together two closed organ pipes of the same diameter but of different lengths. If shorter pipe is of 10 cm length and speed of sound in air is 300 m/s, length of other pipe is

    A)  10.06 cm            

    B)  11.22 cm

    C)  16 cm                                  

    D)  14 cm

    E)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                    \[m={{n}_{1}}-{{n}_{2}}=\frac{v}{4}\left[ \frac{1}{{{l}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{l}_{2}}} \right]\] \[5=\frac{300\times 100}{4}\left[ \frac{1}{{{l}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{l}_{2}}} \right]\] \[\frac{1}{{{l}_{1}}}-\frac{1}{{{l}_{2}}}=\frac{20}{300\times 100}\]             \[=\frac{1}{1500}\]        \[\frac{1}{{{l}_{2}}}=\frac{1}{10}-\frac{1}{1500}\]             \[=\frac{149}{1500}\]         \[{{l}_{2}}=\frac{1500}{149}\]             \[=10.06\,cm\]
