Question

The frequency of a sound wave was measured to be 351 Hz. If you know that the speed of sound in air was 343 m/s, then determine the wavelength of the sound wave.

Answer 1

Answer:

wavelength of the sound wave will be 0.977 m

Explanation:

We have given frequency of the sound wave f = 351 Hz

Speed of the sound wave v = 343 m/sec

We have to find the wavelength of the sound wave

We know that velocity of the sound wave is given by $v=\lambda f$

So wavelength of the sound wave $\lambda =\frac{v}{f}=\frac{343}{351}=0.977m$

So wavelength of the sound wave will be 0.977 m
