$A$ student is experimenting with a resonance tube apparatus in a Physics lab to find the speed of sound at room temperature. He obtained the first two resonating lengths of the air column as $17 \, cm$ and $51 \, cm$,using a tuning fork of frequency $512 \, Hz$. Find the speed of sound at room temperature in $m/s$.

The number of possible natural oscillations of an air column in a pipe closed at one end of length $85 \, cm$ whose frequencies lie below $1250 \, Hz$ are (Velocity of sound $= 340 \, m s^{-1}$)

An open pipe is in resonance in its $2^{nd}$ harmonic with a tuning fork of frequency ${f_1}$. Now,it is closed at one end. If the frequency of the tuning fork is increased slowly from ${f_1}$,then again a resonance is obtained with a frequency ${f_2}$. If in this case the pipe vibrates in its $n^{th}$ harmonic,then:
