To solve the problem of finding the ratio of the length of an open organ pipe to that of a closed organ pipe when the fourth overtone of the open pipe is in unison with the sixth overtone of the closed pipe, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Harmonics - For an open organ pipe, the nth overtone corresponds to the (n+1)th harmonic. Therefore, the 4th overtone of the open pipe is the 5th harmonic. - For a closed organ pipe, the nth overtone corresponds to the (2n + 1)th harmonic. Thus, the 6th overtone of the closed pipe is the 13th harmonic. ### Step 2: Write the Frequency Formulas - The frequency of the nth harmonic for an open pipe is given by: ...
