Answer:
Option A,C
Explanation:
Let n th harmonic is corresponding to 50.7 cm and (n+1)th harmonic is corresponding 83.9 cm.
Their difference is $\frac{\lambda}{2}$
$\frac{\lambda}{2}$ = (83.9 - 50.7) cm
$\lambda$ = 66.4 cm
$\frac{\lambda}{4}$ = 16.6 cm
Length corresponding to fundamental mode must be close to $\frac{\lambda}{4}$ and 50.7 cm must be an odd multiple of this length 16.6 × 3 =49.8 cm. Therefore, 50.7 is 3rd harmonic.
If end correction is e, then
$e+50.7=\frac{3\lambda}{4}$
e= 49.8 - 50.7 = -.09 cm
speed of sound , $v=f\lambda$
v= 500 × 66.4 cm/s =332 m/s
