Answer:
354 m/s
Explanation:
For the second overtune (Third harmonic) of an open pipe,
λ = 2L/3................................ Equation 1
Where L = Length of the open pipe, λ = Wave length.
Given: L = 1.75 m.
Substitute into equation 1
λ = 2(1.75)/3
λ = 1.17 m.
From the question,
V = λf.......................... Equation 2
V = speed of sound in the room, f = frequency
Given: f = 303 Hz.
Substitute into equation 2
V = 1.17(303)
V = 353.5
V ≈ 354 m/s
Hence the right answer is 354 m/s
