Solution

Sure, here is the step by step solution:

  1. First, we need to understand that in a closed pipe, the first overtone is the third harmonic. This is because a closed pipe only produces odd harmonics.

  2. The formula for the wavelength of a harmonic in a closed pipe is given by: λ = 4L/n, where L is the length of the pipe and n is the harmonic number.

  3. Substituting the given values into the formula, we get: λ = 4 * 33 cm / 3 = 44 cm.

So, the wavelength of the first overtone of a note in a closed pipe of length 33 cm is 44 cm.
