Wavelength = (wave speed)/(frequency) .
The speed of sound is influenced by the density of the material it's traveling through.
If that's air, it depends on the temperature, humidity, pressure, altitude, suspended
particulate matter, etc. Whatever the speed of the sound happens to be, the
wavelength of a 250 Hz sound will be (speed, units per second)/(250) units.
A typical speed of sound in sea-level air is around 340 meters per second. At that
speed, the wavelength of the same sound is
340/250 = 136 centimeters
What else can I help you with?
What is the wavelength of 250Hz?
The wavelength of a 250 Hz sound wave in air is approximately 1.4 meters. Wavelength is calculated by dividing the speed of sound in air (about 343 meters per second) by the frequency of the wave.
What is the speed of a sound wave that has a wavelenhgth of 1.2 meters and a frequency of 250 H2?
The speed of a wave is its wavelength (λ) x frequency (ƒ).v = 땃 = 1.2m x 250Hz = 300m/s
What is the speed of a sound wave that has a wavelenght of 102 meters and a frequency of 250hz?
speed = wavelength * frequency wavelength = 102 meters frequency = 250 Hz = 250 cycles/second 102 * 250 = 25500 meters/second
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if the frequency of the wave increases?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if frequency of the wave increase?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
The pitch of a sound wave is its wavelength?
Kind of. The pitch of a sound wave is its frequency, and because frequency = 1 / wavelength its pitch is related to the wave length. So to answer, no, the pitch of sound is not the wavelength itself, rather it is the inverse of the wavelength ( 1/wavelength)falseACJM
What is the relationship between wavelength frequency and velocity of sound in air?
The wavelength of a sound wave is inversely proportional to its frequency, meaning higher frequency sound waves have shorter wavelengths. The speed of sound in air is constant at around 343 meters per second, regardless of the frequency of the sound wave. This means that as the frequency of a sound wave increases, its wavelength decreases, but the speed of sound in air remains the same.
If a sound gets louder does the wavelength of the sound it produces increase?
No, the wavelength of a sound does not change when the intensity or loudness of the sound increases. The wavelength of a sound wave depends on the frequency of the sound, which is determined by the source of the sound.
What is the frequency of a sound wave with a wavelength of 0.1 meters?
The frequency of a sound wave with a wavelength of 0.1 meters can be calculated using the formula: frequency = speed of sound / wavelength. Assuming the speed of sound is 343 m/s (at room temperature), the frequency would be 3430 Hz.
If a sound wave has a lower frequency it has a longer wavelength?
Yes, that is correct. The frequency and wavelength of a sound wave are inversely proportional to each other. This means that as the frequency decreases, the wavelength increases, and vice versa.
If the frequency of a sound wave is multiplied by ten what happens to the wave length?
If the frequency of a sound wave is multiplied by ten, the wavelength will decrease by a factor of ten. This is because the speed of sound in a given medium remains constant, so when frequency increases, wavelength decreases proportionally to maintain the speed of sound.
