Problem

A tuning fork of frequency 512 Hz512\,\text{Hz} is used to produce resonance in a resonance-tube experiment. The water levels at first and second resonance are 30.7 cm30.7\,\text{cm} and 63.2 cm63.2\,\text{cm}, respectively. The error in calculating the speed of sound is: (1) 204.1 cm s−1204.1\,\text{cm s}^{-1} (2) 110 cm s−1110\,\text{cm s}^{-1} (3) 58 cm s−158\,\text{cm s}^{-1} (4) 280 cm s−1280\,\text{cm s}^{-1}
