An underwater swimmer sends a sound sign...

An underwater swimmer sends a sound signal to the surface. If it produces 5 beats per second when compared with the fundamental tone of a pipe of 20 cm length closed at one end, what is the wavelength of sound in water? `("Take" v_("water")=1500 m//s and v_("air")= 360 m//s)`
