While measuring the speed of sound by performing a resonance column experiment, a student gets the first resonance condition at a column length of `18 cm` during winter. Repeating the same experiment during summer, she measures the column length to be `x cm` for the second resonance. Then

A

`18 gt x`

B

`x gt 54`

C

`54 gt x gt 36`

D

`36 gt x gt 18`
