Step-by-step solution

We know that, v=\lambdafv = \lambdaf, then, λ=vf=340ms−1340Hz=340ms−1340s−1=1m\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f} = \dfrac{340m{s}^{- 1}}{340Hz} = \dfrac{340m{s}^{- 1}}{340{s}^{- 1}} = 1m

First resonating length, l1=λ4=1004=25cm{l}_{1} = \dfrac{\lambda}{4} = \dfrac{100}{4} = 25cm

Second resonating length, l2=3λ4=3×1004=75cm{l}_{2} = \dfrac{3\lambda}{4} = \dfrac{3 \times 100}{4} = 75cm

Third resonating length, l3=5λ4=5×1004=125cm{l}_{3} = \dfrac{5\lambda}{4} = \dfrac{5 \times 100}{4} = 125cm

So third resonance is not possible since the length of the tube is 125cm125cm

Thus, minimum height of water necessary for resonance =125−75=50cm= 125 - 75 = 50cm

A tunning fork of frequency 340Hz resonates in the fundamental mode with an air column of length 125cm in a cylindrical
