There is no specific or singular program in Linux to "open an audio file." Just as in Windows, there are a large variety of media players to choose from. These include Amarok, Rhythmbox, Juk, VLC, MPlayer, Banshee, and Audacious.

How to run the audio file copied from a CD on a computer using windows operating system?

It depends on what you mean by "run the audio file copied from a CD." If you mean you copied a track straight off a CD onto your computer's hard drive then you have two choices: create a virtual CD-ROM drive to play the track; or, two, convert the audio file to a format the media player you have on your PC can play (mp3, wma, etc.). In either case you'll need special software to create the virtual drive or to convert the audio file for playing. If neither option is for you then you should still be able to play your audio CD from your CD-ROM drive using the default audio software that came with Windows.
