Question
Air column of 20 cm length in a resonance tube resonates with a certain tuning fork when sounded at its upper open end. The lower end of the tube is closed and adjustable by changing the quantity of mercury filled inside the tube. The temperature of the air is 27oC. The change in length of the air column required, if the temperature falls to 7oC and the same tuning fork is again sounded at the upper open end is nearly
- 1 mm
- 7 mm
- 5 mm
- 13 mm
The correct answer is: 7 mm
