Question 4
The diagram represents the motion of a sound wave. The distance between points A and C is 9 meters (m), and it initially takes the wave 3 seconds (s) to travel.
What will be the wavelength of the sound wave if the velocity of the wave remains constant but the pitch is tripled?

A 3 meters
B 6 meters
с 9 meters
D 18 meters

Respuesta :

Answer:A

Explanation:

The wavelength of the sound wave will be 3 meters.

What is wavelength?

The wavelength of any wave is defined as the distance between two max adjacent amplitudes, or the distance between two successive troughs or crest.

Now it is given that:

Distance =9 meters

time = 3 seconds

pitch=1/3 seconds

The velocity of  the sound will be

[tex]V=\dfrac{d}{t}=\dfrac{9}{3}=3\ \frac{m}{s}[/tex]

Now from the question the wavelength of the sound wave if the velocity of the wave remains constant but the pitch is tripled

so  [tex]f=3\times \dfrac{1}{3}=1 herts[/tex]

Now the velocity of the sound will be

[tex]v=f\times \lambda[/tex]

[tex]\lambda=\dfrac{v}{f}=\dfrac{3}{1}=3\ m[/tex]

Thus the wavelength of the sound wave will be 3 meters.
