A tuning fork is used to produce sound waves with a frequency of 514 hertz. The waves travel through the air at 343 m/s. What is the wavelength of the sound waves?

0.667 m

Explanation:

Applying,

v = λf Equation 1

Where v = velocity of sound, λ = wave length, f = frequency

make λ the subject of the equation

λ = v/f Equation 2

From the question,

Given: v = 343 m/s, f = 514 hertz

Substitute these values into equation 2

λ = 343/514

λ = 0.667 m

Hence the wavelength of the sound wave is 0.667 m
