For closed organ pipe, $n_c=\frac{V}{4 l}$ For open organ pipe, $n_0=\frac{V}{2 l^{\prime}}$ For the second overtone of an open organ pipe, $\begin{aligned} & n^{\prime}=3 n_0=\frac{3 V}{2 l^{\prime \prime}} \ & n_c=n^{\prime} \ & \frac{V}{4 l}=\frac{3 V}{2 l^{\prime}} \ & l^{\prime}=6 l=6 \times 20 \ & l^{\prime}=120 \mathrm{~cm} \end{aligned}$
