उत्तर
We have to find the velocity of the sound wave.
Given: Frequency f = 2,000 Hz
Wavelength λ = 0.65 m
We know the relation between velocity, frequency, and wavelength ν = f × λ,
where ν is the velocity, F the frequency, and λ the wavelength.
So,
ν = (2000) × (0.65) m/s
= 1300 m/s
Therefore, velocity of sound is 1300 m/s.
