Yes. The wavelength of a sound is

(speed of sound in air)/(frequency of the sound) .

What are wavelenghts?

wavelenght is the distance between the 2 peaks in sound waves and can be calculated by Wavelenght is = wave speed/ frequency or wave speed __________ frequency


An oscilloscope can be used to produce visible pictures of sound waves. If an oscilloscope is used to measure the distance between the crests of a sound wave what property of the wave will it be measu?

How do sound waves escape microwave ovens?

I think it is to do with the wavelenght of the sound waves. I think there are tiny holes in the microwave and the sound waves are small enough to escape out of the microwave - meanig we can hear our food cook!

X rays dont go as far as radio waves


Are loudness and pitch properties of sound or property of waves?

Loudness and pitch are properties of sound which can be determined by looking at the sound wave. You have a high pitch when the frequency of the wave increases or the wavelenght (lambda) decreases. When the amplitude increases the loudness of the wave increases as well.


Which radiation has the longest wavelenght?

If four sound waves reached a source at the same time what do the waves wave do not have in common 1 amplitude 2 frequency 3speed 4 wavelenght?

First of all, sound waves propagate away from the source, not toward it.Next, if four sound waves reached the same point at the same time, there's no reasonwhy they couldn't all have the same amplitude, frequency, speed, and wavelength.Next question ?


Why some waves travels fastest?

it depends on the kind of material medium it occurs on. and it's wavelenght.
