Problem 4 - Olympiad
A closed pipe produces a fundamental frequency of 125 Hz in air. If the speed of sound increases by 4%, what is the new fundamental frequency?
A. 131 Hz
B. 130 Hz
C. 128 Hz
D. 140 Hz
Check Answer
Show Solution
Correct: B
Fundamental frequency f = v/(4L). Since v increases by 4%, f increases by 4% → 125 * 1.04 = 130 Hz.
