Calculate the wavelength of a sound wave whose frequency is 220 Hz and speed is 440 m/s in a given medium.
Frequency of the sound wave, ν= 220 Hz
Speed of the sound wave, v = 440 m s-1
For a sound wave,
Speed = Wavelength x Frequencyv = λ x ν
∴ λ= v / ν = 440 / 220 = 2m
Hence, the wavelength of the sound wave is 2 m.
