In a resonance tube experiment,two consecutive resonances are observed when the lengths of the air columns are $16 \ cm$ and $49 \ cm$. If the frequency of the tuning fork used is $500 \ Hz$,the velocity of sound in air is $... \ ms^{-1}$.

$A$ tuning fork vibrating with a frequency of $512$ $Hz$ is kept close to the open end of a tube filled with water. The water level in the tube is gradually lowered. When the water level is $17$ $cm$ below the open end,maximum intensity of sound is heard. If the room temperature is $20^{\circ} C$,calculate:
$(a)$ Speed of sound in air at room temperature.
$(b)$ Speed of sound in air at $0^{\circ} C$.
$(c)$ If the water in the tube is replaced with mercury,will there be any difference in your observations?

$A$ pipe open at both ends has a fundamental frequency $f$ in air. The pipe is now dipped vertically in a water drum to half of its length. The fundamental frequency of the air column is now equal to

An organ pipe $P_1$ closed at one end is vibrating in its first overtone. Another pipe $P_2$ open at both ends is vibrating in its third overtone. They are in resonance with a given tuning fork. The ratio of the length of $P_1$ to that of $P_2$ is:
