The lengths of the two pipes open at both ends are $L$ and $(L + L_1)$. If they are sounded together, the beat frequency will be ($v$ = velocity of sound in air)

  • A
    $\frac{vL_1}{L(L + L_1)}$
  • B
    $\frac{2vL_1}{L(L + L_1)}$
  • C
    $\frac{vL_1}{2L(L + L_1)}$
  • D
    $\frac{vL_1}{2L(L + L_1)}$
