A sound wave has a frequency of 1.5 Hz while traveling at a speed of 50 m/s. What is the wavelength?


Sagot :

Answer:

33.3m

Explanation:

Recall that for a regular wave, the relationship between, wavelength, frequency  and velocity (speed) is given by :

v = fλ,

where:

v = velocity (speed) of the wave = 50m/s

f = frequency of the wave = 1.5 Hz

λ = wavelength (we are asked to find this)

simply substitute the given values into the equation:

v = fλ

50 = 1.5 λ,

λ = 50/1.5

λ = 33.3m
