They are correct, resonance tube is a closed pipe
The overturn in closed system are progressively odd numbers unlike open system where they progress arithmetically.
Closed pipe
1st overturn = 3rd harmonic
2nd overturn = 5th harmonic
3rd overturn = 7th harmonic
4th overturn = 9th harmonic
The question was for the 3rd overturn
3rdO. = 7x280
3rdO. = 1960hz
But for open pipe it progresses arithmetically
1st Overturn = 2nd Harmonic
2nd overturn = 3rd harmonic
3rd overturn = 4th harmonic etc
So D is correct ✍️👽

My school the answer is C not D
coz the F3=4f
f³= 4×280= 1120
Even Google AI and chartgpt confirmed it. so please do correction
