The correct option is C 200 Hz
The resonance length in a closed organ pipe is

l=(2n+1)λ4

Hence, the first resonance length in a closed organ pipe is

l1=(2(0)+1)λ4

l1=λ4=50cm .........................(given)

Now, the second resonance length in a closed organ pipe is

l1=(2(1)+1)λ4

l1=3λ4=(3)(50)=150cm
