Speed of sound wave in air

The energy and momentum of an electron are related to the frequency and wavelength of the associated matter wave by the relation: E=hv, p=h/lambda . But while the value of lambda is physically significant, the value of v (and therefore the value of the phase speed v lambda ) has no physical significance. why?

A person has a hearing range from 20 Hz to 20 KHz. What is the typical wavelength of sound waves in air corresponding to these frequencies ? Take the speed of sound in air as 344 ms^ -1 .

How are the wavelength and frequency of a sound wave related to its speed ?
