Question

A sound wave travels at a speed of 33om/s. If its wavelength is1.5cm, calculate the frequency of sound wave?

Solution

V = Î½Î» ...(i)
V is the speed of the wave.
Î½ is the frequency of the wave.
Î» is the wave length of the wave.
V = 330 m/s
Î» = 1.5 cm = (1.5/100) m

Putting the value in equation (i) we get,
Î½ = V/Î» = (330 x 100)/1.5 = 22000 Hz or 22 kHz
