Answer

$0.328\ m,1.31\ m$

Work Step by Step

The lengths of the two pipes can be determined as $f_1=\frac{v}{4L}$ This can be rearranged as: $L=\frac{v}{4f_1}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $L=\frac{343}{4(261.6)}=0.328m$ Similarly $f_2=2(\frac{v}{2L})$ This can be rearranged as: $L=\frac{v}{f_2}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $L=\frac{343}{261.6}$ $L=1.31m$
