    Answer:

    Length = 3.136 meters

    Explanation:

    Given the following data;

    Speed = 345 m/s

    Frequency = 440 Hz

    To find how long is the tube;

    First of all, we would determine the wavelength;

    Wavelength = speed/frequency

    Wavelength = 345/440

    Wavelength = 0.784 m

    Next, we would determine how long is the tube using the formula;

     Length = \frac {2n - 1}{4} * wavelength

    Substituting into the formula, we have;

     Length = \frac {2*1 - 1}{4} * 0.784

     Length = \frac {2 - 1}{4} * 0.784

     Length = \frac {1}{4} * 0.784

    Length = 3.136 meters
