The correct answer is:
$1360 \mathrm{~Hz}$
We know that, there must be an antinode at the open end. Since, a hole has been made at the position $\frac{L}{2}$, so there must be another antinode at $x=\frac{L}{2}$.

For lowest frequency, $\lambda=L=25 \mathrm{~cm}$
Frequency of sound produced,
$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{340}{0.25}=1360 \mathrm{~Hz}$

For lowest frequency, $\lambda=L=25 \mathrm{~cm}$
Frequency of sound produced,
$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{340}{0.25}=1360 \mathrm{~Hz}$
