Correct answer: 400
- Fundamental frequency of a closed organ pipe
For a closed organ pipe, where is the air column length.
- Initial length of air column
Given initial fundamental frequency:
- Final length of air column after pouring water
New fundamental frequency: So new air column length is
- Height of water poured
The water reduces the air column length, so height of water added is
- Volume of water poured
Cross-sectional area:
Thus volume of water is
Convert to :
- Mass of water
Since density of water is ,
- Final answer
The amount of water poured is (g)
