Sound waves travel with a speed of about 330m/s. What is the wavelength of sound whose frequency is 550 hertz?
Here, speed of waves, v = 300m/s
Frequency of waves, f = 550Hz
And, Wavelength,
= ? (To be calculated)
Now,
= f x
So, 330 =550 x
= 
; = 0.6m
Thus, the wavelength of sound wave is 0.6 meter.
Frequency of waves, f = 550Hz
And, Wavelength,
= ? (To be calculated)Now,
= f xSo, 330 =550 x
= ; = 0.6mThus, the wavelength of sound wave is 0.6 meter.
