A longitudinal wave travels at a speed of 0.3 m/s and the frequency of a wave is 20Hz. Find the separation between the two consecutive compressions
Answer:
Wave velocity = 0.3 m/s, frequency = 20 Hz,
To find the wavelength (as wavelength is the separation between two consecutive compressions of a wave)
As we know,
Wave velocity = frequency x wavelength
Wavelength = wave velocity / frequency
= 0.3 / 20
= 1.5 x 10-2m
