Two organ pipes, a pipe of fundamental frequency 440 Hz, closed at one end, and a pipe of fundamental frequency 660 Hz, open at both ends, produce overtones. Which choice below correctly describes overtones present in both pipes?

a. After the first overtone of each pipe, every second overtone of the first pipe matches every second overtone of the second pipe.
b. After the first overtone of each pipe, every second overtone of the first pipe matches every third overtone of the second pipe.
c. After the first overtone of each pipe, every third overtone of the first pipe matches every second overtone of the second pipe.
d. After the first overtone of each pipe, every second overtone of the first pipe matches every fourth overtone of the second pipe.
e. After the first overtone of each pipe, every third overtone of the first pipe matches every fourth overtone of the second pipe.

In a grating experiment, light of 600 nm wavelength produces a first-order maximum 0.35 mm from the central maximum on a distant screen

On the same screen, a second monochromatic source produces a third-order maximum 0.87 mm from the central maximum when it passes through the same diffraction grating. What is the wavelength of the light from the second source?
