Answer:

  1. 1,480 m/s
  2. 296 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of sound in water = Frequency * Wavelength

= 592 * 2.5

= 1,480 m/s

If the wavelength is increased to 5m, the frequency would reduce because higher wavelengths have lower frequencies.

Frequency (from above formula) = Speed of sound in water/ Wavelength

= 1,480/5

= 296 m/s.
