Change in temperature of the medium changes

A

Frequency of sound waves

B

Amplitude of sound waves

C

Wavelength of sound waves

D

Loudness of sound waves

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Speed of sound wave in a medium `vpropsqrt(T)` (where T is temperature of the medium). Clearly, when temperature changes speed also changes.
As, `v=vlambda`
where v is frequency and `lambda` is wavelength.
Frequency (v) remains fixed
`impliesvprop lambda` or `lambdapropv`
So, wavelength `(lambda)` changes.
