Answer:

0.167 m

Step-by-step explanation:

By the definition of the velocity if a wave ,

The velocity of light, v, is the product of its wavelength, λ , and its frequency, f.

V= fλ

frequency - number of occurrences in a unit time

Wavelength - distance between corresponding points of two consecutive waves

(check the graph for wavelength)

a sound wave has a frequency of 1192 hertz. all sound waves in air travel at 322m-example-1
