So my answer of 2 is right as ><><> would be 1.61 so will not fit in the 1.5m pipe. Boom. Thanks

Yes. I know that is what my diagram shows but I didn't seem to upload from the physics forum app? The wave will look like this ><> right?

Thanks, So is it that as I've drawn that only one more full wave will fit in the tube therefore the answer is 2? The third wave would overlap the end and they're not produce the standing wave? Right? So actually it is not about the other harmonics?

1. The air in a closed pipe with an adjustable plunger in is made to vibrate at a frequency 256 Hz over its open end. As the length of the pipe is increased, loud notes are heard as the standing wave in the pipe resonates with the tuning fork. (a) What is the shortest length that will cause a...
