Answer: 0.68 meters

Explanation: The speed of sound at 54°C is approximately 348 m/s.

The formula to calculate the wavelength of a sound wave is:

wavelength = speed of sound / frequency

Substituting the given values, we get:

wavelength = 348 m/s / 512 Hz

wavelength = 0.68 meters (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the wavelength of the sound is approximately 0.68 meters.
