Answer:
0.125m
Explanation:
The velocity of the longitudinal wave is provided to you as 30 m/s and the frequency is also given, now by the formula velocity = frequency * wavelength we can find the wavelength of the wave. Also it is a fact that consecutive compression and rare faction occur at a distance of wavelength / 4. So the answer comes out to be 0.125m.
