The speed of sound in water is 1430 ms Find the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 286 Hz traveling through the water?
Formula is velocity=frequency X wavelength so Wavelength = 5m
What is the wavelength of a sound made by a violin string that has a frequency of 640 Hz if the sound is traveling at 350 meters per second?
Wavelength = speed/frequency = 350/640 = 54.7 centimeters (rounded)
A sound wave traveling at a speed of 340.0 meters per second has a wavelength of 1.25 what is the frequency?
Answer: frequency = 272 Hz. Given the wave velocity (speed of sound) and wavelength, find the frequency of the wave. Velocity = 340.0 m/s, Wavelength = 1.25 m. Formulas: Velocity = wavelength * frequency. Frequency = velocity / wavelength. Calculation: Frequency = (340.0 m/s) / (1.25 m) = 272 Hz. (Where Hertz = cycles / second.)
What is the wavelength of sound waves with frequency 510Hz while traveling in fresh water?
The speed of sound in fresh water is approx 1,500 metres per second. So wavelength = speed/frequency = 2.94 metres.
Find the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 286 Hz traveling through the water?
First we need the speed of sound in water which (from Wikipedia) is 1498 m/s. velocity = frequency*wavelength, so wavelength = v/f 1498/286 = ___m
What is the frequency of sound waves with a wavelength of 60m traveling in air at a speed of 380 ms?
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) = 380/60 = 6-1/3 Hz. (You may be able to feel it, but you can't hear it.)
The speed of sound in water is 1430 meters per second Find the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 286 Hz traveling through the water?
5 meters
What decreases as the frequency of a sound wave increases?
Wavelength.
What is the wavelength in feet of a 20 KHz sound wave traveling at 340 meters per second?
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (340) / (20,000) = 0.017 meter = 1.7 centimeter
Why frequency of thunder is 50 hertz and frequency of whistle is 1000hertz?
It just is. Sound behaves like a wave, and the pitch of the sound affects the wavelength. And wavelength is directly related to the frequency. A high pitched sound has a a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound.
If the wavelength of a 4.80 102 Hz sound in freshwater is 3.10 m what is the speed of sound in fresh water?
Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (480 Hz) x (3.1 m) = 1,488 meters/sec.(About 4.3 times the speed of sound in air !)
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
