Question

A sound has a frequency of 262 Hz. The sound travels through water at 1435m/s. Find the wavelength for the sound when it is traveling through water.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Wavelength = 25 cm = 0.25 meters. If the sound travels 375 meters in one second, How much time will it take to travel 1500m Therefore the sound wave will take 4seconds to travel 1.5 kms

Explanation:

Answer 2

The velocity of sound in water is 1450 m/s

SOLUTION ✍️

GIVEN THAT

Frequency of the sound wave, f = 262 Hz

Velocity = 1435 m/s

We need to find the wavelength of sound in water. The relation between frequency, wavelength and the velocity is given by :

v = f × λ

λ = v/f

λ = 1435/262

λ = 5.47 m

✨So, the velocity of sound in water is 5.47 m.
