From what I understand, there is open pipe (open at both ends) and closed pipe (open at only one end)
Open pipe: L=nlamdba/2
Closed pipe: L=nlambda/4
The q-stem states that the organ of corti is a closed pipe.
We know that as we go from base to apex in the cochlear, the frequency decreases. (we would use f=nv/4L)
As frequency decreases from b to a, we would expect L to increase, which matches with A. (linearly not exponentially, since there is no exponent in the...
