$A$ pipe $P_{C}$ closed at one end and a pipe $P_{O}$ open at both ends are vibrating in their second overtone. They are in resonance with a given tuning fork. The ratio of the length of pipe $P_{C}$ to $P_{O}$ is (Neglect end correction):

$A$ closed organ pipe of length $L$ and an open organ pipe of length $L'$ contain gases of densities $\rho_{1}$ and $\rho_{2}$ respectively. The compressibility of the gases is equal in both pipes. Both pipes are vibrating in their first overtone with the same frequency. The length of the open pipe is $L' = \frac{x}{3} L \sqrt{\frac{\rho_{1}}{\rho_{2}}}$,where $x$ is ......... .
