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

wavelength of the sound wave will be 0.977 m

Step-by-step 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 =(v)/(f)=(343)/(351)=0.977m`

So wavelength of the sound wave will be 0.977 m
