For a pipe open at both ends, each end behaves as which point?
AAn antelope
BAn antidote
CAn antinode
DAn anecdote
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: C. An antinode
1. An open end is free to move, so it cannot be a still point.
2. A closed end is the opposite case.
3. For a pipe open at both ends, each end is an antinode.
4. So the answer is an antinode.
