A musical organ produces notes by blowing air onto a set of pipes that are open at one end and closed at the other.

What is the lowest frequency of sound produced by a pipe of length 10m?
(The speed of sound in the pipe is 320ms-1.

Thanks.

It's a straight forward question. Either you get it or you don't. Are you a science major? If so you will probably want to, change majors. Not trying to be a dick, but if you don't get it, you don't get it.

I'll help because you posted penguins. To start you need to notice that the pipe will be 1/4 of the wavelength produced. Then substitute that into v=w/f and solve for f.
