The velocity of sound in air is 340 m//s...

The velocity of sound in air is `340 m//s`. Compute :
(i) its wavelength when the frequency is `250 hz`.
(ii) its frequency when the wavelength is `85 cm`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(i) `lamda = (v)/(v) = (340 m//s)/(250 Hz) = 1.36 m`
(ii) `v' = (v)/(lamda') = (340 m//s)/(0.85 m) = 400 Hz`.
