Answer:

0.777m

Explanation:

The sound wave has a wavelength of 0.773m.

Explanation:

To solve this problem we have to use the wave equation that is given below:

We know the frequency and the velocity, both of which have good units. All we have to do is rearrange the equation and solve for

λ :

λ = v f

Let's plug in our given values and see what we get!

λ = 340 m s

440 s − 1

λ = 0.773 m

Hope this helps, Mark as brainliest if u want

So I'm struggling with rearranging kinematic formulas. Does anyone have any steps or something to help.

Rearranging formulas is all about simple algebra rules. Just like when solving for x in an equation, you're just isolating whichever variable you want. I'll work this one out for you and hopefully it'll help, but if you need more explanation, then feel free to comment!

D = ViT + 0.5at² Subtract ViT from both sides

D - ViT = 0.5at² Divide both sides by 0.5t²

$\frac{D - ViT}{0.5t^{2} } = \frac{0.5at^{2} }{0.5t^{2} }$ I wrote this step out a little more to show how your fraction will cancel
