Problem

A tuning fork of frequency 340 Hz340\,\text{Hz} is sounded above an organ pipe of length 120 cm120\,\text{cm}. Water is slowly poured into it. The minimum height of the water column required for resonance is: (Speed of sound in air =340 m s−1=340\,\text{m s}^{-1}.) (1) 25 cm25\,\text{cm} (2) 95 cm95\,\text{cm} (3) 75 cm75\,\text{cm} (4) 45 cm45\,\text{cm}
