$A$ closed organ pipe of length $L$ and an open organ pipe contain gases of densities $\rho_1$ and $\rho_2$ respectively. The compressibility of the gases is equal in both the pipes. If the frequencies of their first overtones are the same,then the length of the open organ pipe is:

  • A
    $\frac{4 L}{3} \sqrt{\frac{\rho_2}{\rho_1}}$
  • B
    $\frac{4 L}{3} \sqrt{\frac{\rho_1}{\rho_2}}$
  • C
    $\frac{4 L}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{L}{3}$
