Calculate the wavelength of a sound wave...

Calculate the wavelength of a sound wave whose frequency is 220 Hz and speed is 400 m/s in a given medium.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Speed `=("distance")/("time taken ")=lamda/T`
`V= nlamda[n=1/T]`
Speed = wavelength `xx` frequency
`lamda=V/V=440/220=2` metre
