The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe is 293 Hz when the air in it is at a temperature of 20oC. What will be its fundamental frequency when the temperature changes to 22oC?
Given:
The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe is 293 Hz. Let this be represented by
.
Temperature of the air in closed pipe
= 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293 K
Let
be the frequency in the closed pipe when the temperature of the air is
.
∴
= 22°C = 22 + 273 = 295 K
