A sounding fork whose frequency is 256 H...

A sounding fork whose frequency is `256 Hz` is held over an empty measuring cylinder. The sound is faint , but if just the right amount of water is poured into the cyclinder , it becomes loud. If the optimal amount of water produce an air column of length `0.31 m`, then the speed of sound in air to a first approximation is
