Chapter 12, Problem 7Q

How will the air temperature in a room affect the pitch of organ pipes?

To determine

The air temperature in a room affects the pitch of organ pipe

Answer to Problem 7Q

Solution:

In Higher temperature frequency will be high and also velocity speed is more

In lower temperature frequency will be low and velocity is less

Explanation of Solution

In Higher temperature frequency will be high and also velocity speed is more In lower temperature frequency will be low and velocity is less. the resonant frequency produced by pipe depends on the speed of sound.

$f=\frac{v}{2L}$

Where,

$f=$ Frequency

$v$ =velocity

$L$ =length
