Question

an object is producing a sound that has a wavelength in air of 2.69m. If the speed of sound in air is 346m/s, what is the frequency of the sound produced by the object ?

Answer 1

Answer:

129.74 Hz

Explanation:

Given:

Wave velocity ( v ) = 346 m / sec

wavelength ( λ ) = 2.69 m

We have to calculate Frequency ( f ) :

We know:

v = λ / t [ f = 1 / t ]

v = λ f

= > f = v / λ

Putting values here we get:

= > f = 346 / 2.69 Hz

= > f = 34600 / 269 Hz

= > f = 129.74 Hz

Hence, frequency of sound is 129.74 Hz.
