Standing Wave Vibrations of string fixed at both ends

Two narrow cylindrical pipes A and B have the same length . Pipe A is open at both ends and is filled with a monoatomic gas of molar mass M_(A) . Pipe B is open at one end and closed at the other end and is filled with a diatomic gas of molar mass M_(B) . Both gases are at the same temperature . a. If the frequency to the second harmonic of the fundamental mode in pipe A is equal to the frequency of the third harmonic of the fundamental mode in pipe B , determine the value of M_(A)//M_(B) . b. Now the open end of pipe B is also closed ( so that pipe B is closed at both ends ). Find the ratio of the fundamental frequency in pipe A to that in pipe B .
