Step-by-step explanation:
1 For a sound wave, the pitch is determined by which wave characteristic?
A - Frequency
2 Which of the following waves cannot be transmitted through a vacuum?
C - Sound waves
3 Which of the following could be the value of a wavelength that is found in the visible region of the electromagnetic spectrum?
B - 5 × 10^-7 m
4 Sophie is trying to measure the speed of sound. She stands 24.0 m away from a wall and claps repeatedly, changing the frequency until the echo synchronized with her claps. If she calculates the speed of sound as 325 m • s-1 how long did she wait between claps?
The time between her claps and the echo is twice the time it takes for the sound to travel from her to the wall. Therefore, the time between her claps is:
time = distance/speed = 2 x 24.0 m/325 m/s = 0.148 seconds (to three significant figures).
So the answer is 0.148, without units and correct to three significant figures
