Atypical flute is about 66 cm long . a piccolo is a very similar instrument ,through it is smaller, with a length of about 32 cm. how does the pitch of a piccolo compare to that of a flute?

The Piccolo have higher frequency than Flute.

Explanation:

given,

length of the tube, L = 66 cm

length of the piccolo, L'= 32 cm

speed of sound = 343 m/s

A flute is open open tube with a fundamental frequency of ;

  f = 260 Hz

A piccolo is also an open open tube so, fundamental frequency is:

  f = 536 Hz

from the above calculation we can clearly see that the  piccolo have much higher frequency than the flute.

now, The Piccolo have higher frequency than Flute.
