(c) According to the question frequencies of first and last tuning forks are $2n$ and $n$ respectively.
Hence frequency in given arrangement are as follows
$==> 2n -24 × 3 = n ==> n= 72 Hz$
So, frequency of $21^{st}$ tuning fork
${n_{21}} = (2 \times 72 - 20 \times 3) = 84Hz$

    An open pipe is in resonance in its $2^{nd}$ harmonic with tuning fork of frequency ${f_1}$. Now it is closed at one end. If the frequency of the tuning fork is increased slowly from ${f_1}$ then again a resonance is obtained with a frequency ${f_2}$. If in this case the pipe vibrates ${n^{th}}$ harmonics then
