and for second pipe ${n_2} = \frac{v}{{4{l_2}}}$
So, number of beats = ${n_2} - {n_1} = 4$
$ \Rightarrow $$4 = \frac{v}{4}\left( {\frac{1}{{{l_2}}} - \frac{1}{{{l_1}}}} \right)$
$ \Rightarrow $$16 = 300\left( {\frac{1}{{{l_2}}} - \frac{1}{1}} \right)$
$ \Rightarrow $${l_2} = 94.9$$cm$

where $x$ and $y$ are in metres and $t$ is in seconds. The ratio of maximum particle velocity to the wave velocity is
