A wave of length 0.60 cm is produced in ...

A wave of length 0.60 cm is produced in air and travels with a velocity of `340ms^(-1)`. Will it be audible to human ear?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Wavelength, `lamda=0.6xx10^(-2)m`
Velocity of sound, `v=340ms^(-1)`
Frequency, `n=(v)/(lamda)`
`=(340)/(0.6xx10^(-2))=566.66xx10^(2)`
`n=567xx10^(2)Hz`
