Calculate the speed of transverse waves in the wire?

A variable length air column is placed just below a vibrating wire that is fixed at both ends. The length of the air column open at open end is gradually increased until the first position of resonance is observed at 34.0 cm. The wire is 120 cm long and is vibrating in its third harmonic. Calculate the speed of transverse waves in the wire.
