Answer 2

Answer:

The speed of sound of a gas is 360 m/s. The frequency of vibration of a tuning fork is 100 Hz, the wavelength of sound waves in the gas​ is $3.6m$

Explanation:

• The frequency (f) of the sound wave is the number of vibrations per second

• The time period (T) is $T=1/f$

• For a wave moving with a speed (V), the wavelength (λ) is the distance between compressions or rarefactions in a sound wave

        λ$=V/f$

From the question, we have

the frequency of vibration $f=100Hz$

the speed of the wave $V=360m/s$

⇒

the wavelength of the given wave λ$=V/f=360/100=3.6m$
