Cevap: $1 : 4$

Cevap

The ratio of the length of the closed pipe to the length of the open pipe is

1 : 4

The fundamental mode of a pipe closed at one end has a frequency of

f = \frac{v}{4L_c}

. The first overtone of a pipe open at both ends corresponds to the second harmonic, which has a frequency of

f = \frac{v}{L_o}

. Equating the two frequencies gives

\frac{v}{4L_c} = \frac{v}{L_o}

, which simplifies directly to

\frac{L_c}{L_o} = \frac{1}{4}

Express the fundamental frequency of the pipe closed at one end

f_c = \frac{v}{4L_c}

, where

v

is the speed of sound and

L_c

is the length of the closed pipe.

A pipe closed at one end supports odd harmonics, and its fundamental wavelength is

\lambda_c = 4L_c

Express the frequency of the first overtone of the open pipe

f_o = \frac{2v}{2L_o} = \frac{v}{L_o}

, where

L_o

is the length of the open pipe.

An open pipe supports all harmonics (

n = 1, 2, 3, \dots

). The fundamental is

n=1

and the first overtone corresponds to

n=2

Equate the two frequencies and solve for the length ratio

\frac{L_c}{L_o}

\frac{v}{4L_c} = \frac{v}{L_o} \implies 4L_c = L_o \implies \frac{L_c}{L_o} = \frac{1}{4}

The problem states that the fundamental frequency of the closed pipe is equal to the first overtone frequency of the open pipe.
