Question

What is the relationship between wave velocity,wave length and frequency of sound

Answer 1

Answer:

Sound Wave is a longitudinal wave. In this kind of wave, the particles vibrate in a direction parallel to the direction of propagation of wave.

1. The velocity is the rate of change of position of the wave.

2. Wavelength is the distance between 2 adjacent crests or troughs

3. Frequency is the reciprocal of time period of vibrations of medium particles.

The relationship between these quantities :

$vel. \: = freq. \times wavelength$

$= > vel. = \mu \times \lambda$

So final answer :

$\boxed{ vel. = \mu \times \lambda}$
