The difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water is 3.1 m. Then the correct option is B.
The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The peak of the wave is the highest point, while the trough is the lowest.
The wavelength is also defined as the distance between two locations in a wave that have the same oscillation phase.
A frequency generator sends a 550 Hz sound wave through both water and ice.
The wavelength is given as
[tex]\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}[/tex]
f = frequency
v = velocity
Then the wavelength in the water will be
[tex]\rm \lambda _w = \dfrac{1500}{550}\\\\\lambda _w = 2.73[/tex]
The wavelength in the ice will be
[tex]\rm \lambda _I = \dfrac{3200}{550}\\\\\lambda _I = 5.82[/tex]
Then the difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water will be
[tex]\rightarrow \lambda _I - \lambda_w \\\\\rightarrow 5.82 - 2.73 \\\\\rightarrow 3.09 \approx 3.1[/tex]
Thus, the difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water is 3.1 m.
