Answer:
the fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is 120.78 Hz
Explanation:
Given;
length of the open pipe, L = 1.42 m
speed of sound in air, v = 343 m/s
The length of the open pipe for the fundamental frequency is equivalent to half of wavelength;
[tex]L = \frac{\lambda}{2} \\\\\lambda = 2L[/tex]
The fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is calculated as;
[tex]f_o = \frac{v}{\lambda} \\\\f_o = \frac{v}{2L} \\\\f_o = \frac{343}{2 \times 1.42} \\\\f_o = 120.78 \ Hz[/tex]
Therefore, the fundamental frequency produced by the open pipe is 120.78 Hz
