A sound wave enters a new medium where sound travels faster. How does this affect the frequency and wavelength of the sound?

Sophie [7]

The frequency stays the same and the wavelength increases.

Explanation;

Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave which requires a material medium for transmission. The transmission of such waves occurs as a result of vibration of particles in the material medium. The faster the vibration of the particles the higher the speed of the sound waves.

When a sound enters a new medium where the sound travels faster, it means the vibration of particles is high, and the wavelength of the waves increases which means the speed of the wave has increased. The frequency on the other hand will remain constant.

To solve this problem it is necessary to consider two concepts. The first of these is the flow rate that can be defined as the volumetric quantity that a channel travels in a given time. The flow rate can also be calculated from the Area and speed, that is,

Q = V*A

Where,

A= Cross-sectional Area

V = Velocity

The second concept related to the calculation of this problem is continuity, which is defined as the proportion that exists between the input channel and the output channel. It is understood as well as the geometric section of entry and exit, defined as,

$Q_1 = Q_2$
