The video tutorial explores the fundamental frequency of a pipe open at both ends and how it changes when the pipe is half submerged in water. Initially, the wavelength and frequency are calculated for the pipe open at both ends. The velocity of sound is discussed in relation to frequency. When the pipe is submerged, the effective length changes, but the fundamental frequency remains the same as when the pipe is open at both ends.
