Problem

For a certain organ pipe, three successive resonance frequencies are observed at 425 Hz425\text{ Hz}, 595 Hz595\text{ Hz}, and 765 Hz765\text{ Hz}. Taking the speed of sound in air to be 340 m/s340\text{ m/s}: (a) Explain whether the pipe is closed at one end or open at both ends. (b) Determine the fundamental frequency and length of the pipe.
