Any given length of tubing will produce a specific set of notes on what is called the "overtone series." By making the length longer or shorter, it changes the group of available notes.
the pitch of the lowest possible resulting sound will be inversely proportional to the length of the tube.
It's basic physics. A longer tube will produce a lower pitch than a shorter tube.
A length of pipe has a natural resonance when air is vibrated within it. The longer the pipe the lower the note
Brass instruments produce sound by the vibrating of the player's embouchure in a mouthpiece, and the valves and slides on the instrument alter the length of the tubing in the instrument which affects the pitch of the notes produced. The farther the air has to travel in the instrument the lower the pitch of the sound is, whereas the less distance the air has to travel the higher the pitch the instrument will produce.
In a brass instrument, sound is produced when the player buzzes their lips into the mouthpiece. This buzzing creates vibrations, which then travel through the air column inside the instrument. The shape and length of the instrument, along with the player's technique, affect the pitch and tone of the sound produced. Valves or slides may be used to change the pitch by altering the length of the air column.

Lower. By increasing the length of the air column in the instrument, the wavelength of the sound produced is longer, resulting in a lower pitch.

Brass instruments go flat when cold because the metal shrinks slightly when cold causing the pitch to go flat. It is similar to the effect of pushing in a tuning slide when the instrument's pitch is sharp (it shortens the length of the instrument).As the instrument warms, the metal expands, raising the pitch similar to pulling out the tuning slide.
