उत्तर
Change in temperature of the medium changes wavelength of sound waves.
Explanation:
Speed of sound wave in a medium `v ∝ sqrt(T)` (where T is the temperature of the medium)
Clearly, when temperature changes speed also changes.
As v = vλ
Where v is the frequency and λ is the wavelength.
Frequency (v) remains fixed
⇒ v ∝ λ or λ ∝ v
As does not change. so wavelength (λ) changes.
