AI Generated Solution

To calculate the speed of sound in air based on the provided information, we can use the formula: \[ \text{Speed} = \text{Frequency} \times \text{Wavelength} \] ### Step 1: Identify the given values - Frequency (f) = 150 Hz - Distance travelled by sound in one vibration (which represents the wavelength, λ) = 20 cm = 0.20 m (since we need to convert cm to m) ...
