A wave of wavelength 0.60 cm is produced in air and it travels at a speed of 300 ms^-1. Will it be audible?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine if a wave with a given wavelength and speed is audible, we need to calculate its frequency and compare it to the range of human hearing. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values:** - Wavelength (\(\lambda\)) = 0.60 cm - Speed of the wave (v) = 300 m/s ...
