Detailed Solution
Using concept of stationary waves, we can say at rigid walls Node formation takes place.L=λ2, λ, 3λ2, 2λ..., nλ2 where n=1,2,3... Longest wavelength is specified by λ=2L. next by λ=Lthen λ=L×23. etc In general λn=2Ln,n=1,2,3,…For(a) λ=2L3For (b) λ=LFor (c) )λ=2L . Hence, all are possible.
