Explanation:

Take a measuring cylinder and fill it with a certain amount of water. Measure this amount of water.

Place the paper clip in the filled measuring cylinder. You will notice that the water level has gone up. When we place the paper clip in the cylinder the volume of the paper clip gets added to the volume that was present in the cylinder.

The volume of the paper clip will be the final volume of water with the paper clip - The initial volume of water without the paper clip.

Any irregularly shaped object's volume can be determined by this method.

A closed-end organ pipe is used to produce a mixture of sounds. The third and fifth harmonics in the mixture have frequencies of

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

$F_1=366.67Hz$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frequency of 3rd harmonics $F_3=1100$

Frequency of 5th harmonics $F_3=1833$

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 3rd Harmonics is mathematically given by

$\lambda_3=\frac{4}{3}l$

Therefore

$F_3=\frac{3v}{4l}$

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 1st Harmonics is mathematically given by

$\lambda_1=\frac{4}{1}l$

Therefore

$F_1=\frac{v}{4l}$

Generally the equation for the frequency of the first harmonic is mathematically given by

$F_1=\frac{F_3}{3}$

$F_1=\frac{1100}{3}$

$F_1=366.67Hz$
