A sound wave is traveling 1000 m/s through some medium. If the wavelength of the sound wave is 4 m, what is its frequency? 996 Hz 4000 Hz 250 Hz 0.004 Hz

Respuesta :

The frequency of the wave is 250 Hz

Explanation:

The equation that relates speed, frequency and wavelength of a wave is the following:

[tex]v=f \lambda[/tex]

where

v is the speed of the wave

f is its frequency

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

For the sound wave in this problem we have

v = 1000 m/s is the speed

[tex]\lambda = 4 m[/tex] is the wavelength

Therefore, we can find the frequency:

[tex]f=\frac{v}{\lambda}=\frac{1000}{4}=250 Hz[/tex]
