A train of sound waves is propagated along a wide pipe and it is reflected from an open end. If the amplitude of the waves is 0.002 cm0.002 \mathrm{~cm}, the frequency is 1000 Hz1000 \mathrm{~Hz} and the wavelength is 40 cm40 \mathrm{~cm}, the amplitude of vibration at a point 10 cm10 \mathrm{~cm} from open end inside the pipe will be
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
zero
Option A (zero) is correct because at a distance of λ/4\lambda/4 from an open end, there is a node where the amplitude of vibration is zero.
