Dentermine the speed of sound waves in water , and find the wavelength of a wave having a frequency of `242 H_(Z)` . Take `B_(water) = 2xx10^(9) Pa`.

A

`5.84m`

B

`11.68m`

C

`1414m`

D

none

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Speed of sound wave,
`nu= sqrt((B)/(rho))= sqrt((2 xx 10^(9))/(10^(3))) = 1414 m//s`
Wavelength, `lambda = (nu)/(f) = 5.84m`
