The speed of a 10-kHz sound wave in seawater is approximately 1500 m/s. What is its wavelength in sea water? a. 5.0 cm
b. 10 cm
c. 15 cm
d. 20 cm
e. 29 cm

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.

Adolphin emits ultrasound at 100khz and uses the timing of reflections to determine the position of objects in the water. part a what is the wavelength of this ultrasound? assume that temperature of water is 20 degrees c. answer in cm

Is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that has a frequency just above that of visible light.
