The wavelength of the wave is 0.055 m

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is given by the wave equation:

v=f\lambda

where

v is the speed

f is the frequency

\lambda is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 340 m/s is the speed

f = 6,191 Hz is the frequency

Solving for \lambda, we find the wavelength:

\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{340}{6191}=0.055 m
