A musical instrument that has a tube closed at one end has a length of 31.5 cm long. On a particularly warm day when the temperature was recorded at 34.6ºC, a 2nd overtone was established. What was the frequency, in Hz, of the note for this situation? An accurate sketch of the standing wave is needed.
