A progressive sound wave of frequency 500 Hz is travelling through air with a speed of 350 m/z. If a compression appears at a place at a instant, hten the minimum time interval after which the rarefaction occurs at the same point will be

A

250s

B

`(1)/(250)s`

C

`(1)/(500)s`

D

`(1)/(1000)s`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

The time interval between compression and rarefaction is half of the period is
`T_(1) = (T)/(2) = (1)/(2 xx 500) = (1)/(1000) s`
