(C) Let the length of both pipes be $L$. For an open pipe, the frequency of the $n^{th}$ harmonic is $f_n = n \cdot \frac{v}{2L}$. The first overtone is the second harmonic $(n=2)$, so $f_{open} = 2 \cdot \frac{v}{2L} = \frac{v}{L}$. For a closed pipe, the frequency of the $n^{th}$ harmonic is $f_n = (2n-1) \cdot \frac{v}{4L}$. The first overtone is the third harmonic $(n=2)$, so $f_{closed} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{4L}$. The beat frequency is $|f_{open} - f_{closed}| = 3$. $|\frac{v}{L} - \frac{3v}{4L}| = 3$ implies $\frac{v}{4L} = 3$ implies $\frac{v}{L} = 12$. Now, the new length of the open pipe is $L' = \frac{L}{3}$ and the new length of the closed pipe is $L'' = 3L$. The new frequency of the open pipe in the first overtone is $f'_{open} = 2 \cdot \frac{v}{2L'} = \frac{v}{L/3} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{L} = 3 \cdot 12 = 36 	ext{ Hz}$. The new frequency of the closed pipe in the first overtone is $f''_{closed} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{4L''} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{4(3L)} = \frac{v}{4L} = 3 	ext{ Hz}$. The number of beats produced is $|36 - 3| = 33$. Wait, re-evaluating the question: if the first overtone of the closed pipe is $3 \cdot \frac{v}{4L} = 3 	ext{ Hz}$, then $f_{open} = 12 	ext{ Hz}$. New $f'_{open} = \frac{v}{L/3} = 3 \cdot 12 = 36$. New $f''_{closed} = \frac{3v}{4(3L)} = \frac{v}{4L} = 3$. Beats = $36 - 3 = 33$. Since $33$ is not in the options, let's re-check the overtone definition. First overtone of closed pipe is $3^{rd}$ harmonic $(3v/4L)$. First overtone of open pipe is $2^{nd}$ harmonic $(2v/2L = v/L)$. $|v/L - 3v/4L| = v/4L = 3$. If $v/L = 12$, then $v/4L = 3$. New $f_{open} = 2 \cdot \frac{v}{2(L/3)} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{L} = 36$. New $f_{closed} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{4(3L)} = \frac{1}{4} \cdot \frac{v}{4L} = \frac{3}{4} = 0.75$. Perhaps the question implies fundamental frequency? If $f_{open} = v/2L$ and $f_{closed} = v/4L$, then $|v/2L - v/4L| = v/4L = 3$. Then $v/2L = 6$. New $f_{open} = \frac{v}{2(L/3)} = 3 \cdot \frac{v}{2L} = 18$. New $f_{closed} = \frac{v}{4(3L)} = \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{v}{4L} = 1$. $|18 - 1| = 17$.

The closed and open organ pipe have same length and when they are vibrating simultaneously in first overtone produce $3$ beats. The length of open pipe is made $(\frac{1}{3})^{rd}$ and closed pipe is made $3$ times the original, the number of beats produced will be {neglect end correction}
