A musical tone,sounded on a piano,has a frequency of 410 Hz and a wavelength in air of 0.800 m.What is the wave speed?
A)170 m/s
B)235 m/s
C)328 m/s
D)587 m/s

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The wave speed (v) can be found using the formula:
v = λf
where λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency.
Substituting the given values, we get:
v = 0.800 m x 410 Hz
v = 328 m/s
Therefore, the best choice is C (328 m/s).
