In a resonance tube experiment, a closed organ pipe of length 120 cm is used. Initially it is completely filled with water. It is vibrated with tuning fork of frequency 340 Hz. To achieve resonance, the water level is lowered then (given vair=340 m s-1, neglect end correction):

Two narrow organ pipes, one open (length l1) and the other closed (length l2) are sounded in their respective fundamental modes. The beat frequency heard is 5 Hz. If now the pipes are sounded in their first overtones, then also the beat frequency heard is 5 Hz. Then:

Select all the correct alternatives. Two identical straight wires are stretched so as to produce 6 beats per second when vibrating simultaneously. On changing the tension slightly in one of them, the beat-frequency remains unchanged. Denoting by T1, T2 the higher and the lower initial tensions in the strings, then it could be said that while making the above changes in tension.
