$A$ student performed an experiment to measure the speed of sound in air using the resonance air-column method. Two resonances in the air-column were obtained by lowering the water level. The resonance with the shorter air-column is the first resonance and that with the longer air-column is the second resonance. Then,

Consider the following statements about stationary waves:
$A$. The distance between two adjacent nodes or antinodes is equal to $\frac{\lambda}{2}$ $(\lambda = \text{wavelength of the wave})$.
$B$. $A$ pressure node is always formed at the open end of the open organ pipe.
Choose the correct option from the following:

The fundamental frequency of a closed pipe of length $L$ is equal to the second overtone of a pipe open at both the ends of length $(XL)$. The value of $X$ is (Neglect end correction).

Two open organ pipes of length $60 \,cm$ and $90 \,cm$ resonate at $6^{\text{th}}$ and $5^{\text{th}}$ harmonics respectively. The difference of frequencies for the given modes is . . . . . $Hz$.
(Velocity of sound in air $= 333 \,m/s$)

An organ pipe $P_1$, closed at one end and containing a gas of density $\rho_1$ is vibrating in its first harmonic. Another organ pipe $P_2$, open at both ends and containing a gas of density $\rho_2$ is vibrating in its third harmonic. Both the pipes are in resonance with a given tuning fork. If the compressibility of gases is equal in both pipes, the ratio of the lengths of $P_1$ and $P_2$ is (assume the given gases to be monoatomic)
