$A$ tuning fork of frequency $n$ is held near the open end of a tube which is closed at the other end,and the length is adjusted until resonance occurs. The first resonance occurs at length $L_1$ and the immediate next resonance occurs at length $L_2$. The speed of sound in air is

  • A
    $n(L_2 - L_1)$
  • B
    $\frac{n(L_2 - L_1)}{2}$
  • C
    $2n(L_2 - L_1)$
  • D
    $\frac{n(L_2 + L_1)}{2}$
