A bottlenose dolphin can hear sounds with frequencies up to 1.5 x 10^5 Hz. If the speed of sound in sea water is approximately 1.5 x 10^3 m/s, what is the wavelength of the wave thae dolphin can hear?

a
2.25 x 10^2 m
b
1 x 10^-2 m
c
1 x 10^2 m

b.  1.0 × m

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between successive crests or troughs. It is measured in meters, and related to velocity and frequency of the wave by:

  v = fλ

Where v is the velocity, f frequency and λ is the wavelength of the wave. Given that; f = 1.5× Hz and v = 1.5 × , then:

            λ =

               =

               = 1.0 × m

The wavelength, λ, of the wave is  1.0 × m.

molecules are free to separate from each other and will take on the shape of the container. molecules move completely at random and high speeds. they vibrate in a fixed position and do not move around much. molecules expand to the edge of their container.
