A 0.75 cm long closed organ pipe is vibrating in its fundamental mode. If the temperature of the room be 15°C and the speed of sound in air at this temperature be 340 ms-1, then determine the frequency of the note of the pipe. If the temperature rises to 25°C, then what will be the frequency? Consider the effect of temperature on the length of the pipe negligible.
