Displacement of a wave is expressed as x(t)=5cosleft(628t+fracpi2right)text m$x(t)=5\cos\left(628t+\frac{\pi}{2}\right)\text{ m}$. The wavelength of the wave when its velocity is 300 m/s is:

For a closed organ pipe, the fundamental frequency (1st harmonic) is: f_1 = fracvlambda = fracv4L_1$$f_1 = \frac{v}{\lambda} = \frac{v}{4L_1}$$ where L_1$L_1$ is the length of the closed pipe. For an open organ pipe, the first overtone (2nd harmonic) is: f_2 = frac2v2L_2 = fracvL_2$$f_2 = \frac{2v}{2L_2} = \frac{v}{L_2}$$ where L_2$L_2$ is the length of the open pipe (L_2 = 60mathrm\,cm$L_2 = 60\mathrm{\,cm}$). ### Step 2: Equating Frequencies Given f_1 = f_2$f_1 = f_2$: fracv4L_1 = fracvL_2$$\frac{v}{4L_1} = \frac{v}{L_2}$$ L_2 = 4L_1$L_2 = 4L_1$ 60 = 4 times L_1$$60 = 4 \times L_1$$ L_1 = 15mathrm\,cm$$L_1 = 15\mathrm{\,cm}$$ ### Evaluation Rubric / Model Answer null ### Chapter Mix Class 11 Physics: Waves
