The speed of sound in a particular gas is 675 m/s. A sound wave propagating in this material has a wavelength offifteen meters. What is the frequency of this sound?knowns and unknownsolveright answer

Respuesta :

Given, Speed of the sound, v=675 m/s

The wavelength of the wave, λ=15 m

Relation between speed, wavelength, and frequency of a wave is given by

[tex]v=f\lambda[/tex]

Where f is the frequency of the sound.

On substituting the known values,

[tex]675=f\times15[/tex]

Which gives us,

[tex]f=\frac{675}{15}=45\text{ Hz}[/tex]

Therefore the frequency of the sound in the given medium is 45 Hz.
