A sound wave of frequency 500 Hz covers ...

A sound wave of frequency 500 Hz covers a distance of 1000 m is 5 sec between the points X and Y. Then the number of waves between X and Y is

A

500

B

2500

C

1000

D

5000

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`v = (d)/(t) = (1000)/(5) = 200 m//s`
`lamda = (v)/(n) = (200)/(500) = (2)/(5)`
`bar(lamda) = (1)/(lamda) = (5)/(2) xx 1000 = 2500`
