A source of sound produces waves of wavelength 0.8m.the same source of sound produces waves of wavelength 4.0m in water.if the velocity of sound in air is 332m/s find the velocity of sound in water?
Velocity of sound= frequency * wavelength
Or 332=frequency * 0.8
Or frequency = 332/0.8
Or frequency= 415 hz
Now,
Velocity of sound in water =frequency *wavelength
Or velocity =415*4
=1660m/s
Or 332=frequency * 0.8
Or frequency = 332/0.8
Or frequency= 415 hz
Now,
Velocity of sound in water =frequency *wavelength
Or velocity =415*4
=1660m/s
