$A$ pipe open at both ends has a fundamental frequency '$f$' in air. The pipe is dipped in water, so that $\frac{2}{3}$ of its length is in water. Now, the fundamental frequency of the air column is:

Two closed organ pipes of length $100 \,cm$ and $101 \,cm$ produce $16$ beats in $20 \,s$. When each pipe is sounded in its fundamental mode,calculate the velocity of sound in $m/s$.

The fundamental frequency of a closed organ pipe is equal to the first overtone frequency of an open organ pipe. If the length of the open pipe is $60 \,cm$, the length of the closed pipe will be: (in $\,cm$)

The closed and open organ pipes have the same length $L$. When they are vibrating simultaneously in their first overtone,they produce $4$ beats per second. The length of the open pipe is made half $(L/2)$ and that of the closed pipe is made two times $(2L)$ the original. Now,the number of beats produced if the two pipes are vibrating in their fundamental modes simultaneously is:

In an experiment to measure the speed of sound by a resonating air column,a tuning fork of frequency $500 \text{ Hz}$ is used. The length of the air column is varied by changing the level of water in the resonance tube. Two successive resonances are heard at air columns of length $50.7 \text{ cm}$ and $83.9 \text{ cm}$. Which of the following statements is (are) true?
$(A)$ The speed of sound determined from this experiment is $332 \text{ m s}^{-1}$
$(B)$ The end correction in this experiment is $0.9 \text{ cm}$
$(C)$ The wavelength of the sound wave is $66.4 \text{ cm}$
$(D)$ The resonance at $50.7 \text{ cm}$ corresponds to the fundamental harmonic
