Question

A person is listening to a tone of $500Hz$ sitting at a distance of $450m$ from the source of the sound. What is the time interval between successive compressions from the source?

Answer 1

Find the time interval:

Given,

Frequency$=500Hz$

So, the time period $=\frac{1}{500}=0.002s$

Hence, the time interval between successive compressions is $0.002s$.
