Are sound waves longitudinal or transverse?
The flash of a gun is seen by a man 3 seconds before the sound is heard. Calculate the distance of the gun from the man (Speed of sound in air is 332 m/s).
The diagram given below shows a displacement distance graph of a wave. If the velocity of wave is 160 ms-1, calculate:
- wavelength
- frequency
- amplitude.

How do the following factor affect the speed of sound in air?
Temperature of air
What is the value of sound of room temperature?
Match the following.
| Ultrasonics | Frequency below 20Hz |
| Speed of sound in air | Needs material medium |
| Infrasonics | 330ms-1 |
| Sound propagation | Frequency more than 20000 Hz |
Consider the statement given below and choose the correct option.
Assertion: When lightning strikes, the sound is heard a little after the flash is seen.
Reason: The velocity of light is greater than that of the sound.
Suppose that a sound wave and a light wave have the same frequency, then which one has a longer wavelength?
What is a wave?
