sound is a longitudinal wave, and its speed depends on the medium through which it propagates. in air, sound travels at 343 m/s

. in an experiment, you observe a sound with a frequency of 600 hz and a wavelength of 6.5 m . what is the speed of sound in this different medium?

The speed of the sound wave in the medium, given the data is 3900 m

<h3>Velocity of a wave </h3>

The velocity of a wave is related to its frequency and wavelength according to the following equation:

Velocity (v) = wavelength (λ) × frequency (f)

v = λf

With the above formula, we can obtain the speed of the sound wave. Details below:

<h3>How to determine speed of the sound wave</h3>

The speed of the wave can be obtained as illustrated below:

  • Frequency (f) = 600 Hz
  • Wavelength (λ) = 6.5 m
  • Velocity (v) =?

v = λf

v = 6.5 × 600

v = 3900 m

Thus, the speed of the sound wave in the medium is 3900 m

Which method of measurement would be accurate but lack precision?
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

reading the volume of water in a graduated cylinder which can be read to the nearest mL is accurate, it lacks precision due to the bottom meniscus formed.

the bottom meniscus may cause a wrong reading due to refraction of light

According to Newton’s first law of motion, when will an object at rest begin to move?
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Newton's first law of motion says something like "An object remains
in constant, uniform motion until acted on by an external force".

Constant uniform motion means no change in speed or direction.
If an object changes from rest to motion, that's definitely a change
of speed.  So it doesn't remain in the state of constant uniform
motion (none) that it had when it was at rest, and that tells us
that an external force must have acted on it.
