Answer :
Given:
Length of pipe l = 20 cm
Frequency of wave = 1237.5 Hz
We know that the for a pipe closed at one end the resonant frequency of the pipe is given by
where n is the harmonic, v is the speed of the wave and l is the length of the pipe. For first harmonic or fundamental frequency we have n = 1, then
for a frequency of 1237.5 Hz,
Therefore, the given frequency corresponds to the third harmonic.
