Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

A sound wave travels in air at a speed of 340 m/s. If the frequency of the sound is 1700 Hz, what is the wavelength?
  • Step 1: Identify the speed of sound in air, which is given as 340 m/s.
  • Step 2: Identify the frequency of the sound wave, which is given as 1700 Hz.
  • Step 3: Use the formula for wavelength, which is Wavelength (λ) = Speed (v) / Frequency (f).
  • Step 4: Substitute the values into the formula: λ = 340 m/s / 1700 Hz.
  • Step 5: Perform the division: 340 divided by 1700 equals 0.2.
  • Step 6: Conclude that the wavelength is 0.2 meters.
  • Wave Properties – The relationship between speed, frequency, and wavelength of a wave, described by the formula λ = v/f.
