Problem

An organ pipe open at both ends has length 0.60 m and vibrates in its third harmonic. A pipe closed at one end emits a note that is 30 Hz lower than this in its fundamental mode. If the speed of sound in air is 340 m s−1^{-1}, determine the length of the closed pipe. a) 8.5\;\text{cm} b) 20.8\;\text{cm} c) 10.4\;\text{cm} d) 14.6\;\text{cm}
