Solution
Length of pipe
(Closed pipe)
l = 20 cm = 20 × 10–2m
`v_"funda" = v/(4L) = 330/(4 xx 20 xx 10^-2)` ......(For closed pipe)
`v_"funda" = (330 xx 100)/80` = 412.5 Hz
`v_"given"/v_"funda" = 1237.5/412.5` = 3
Hence, 3rd harmonic mode of the pipe is resonantly excited by the source of given frequency.
