Question

A frequency generator sends a 550 Hz sound wave through both water and ice. A 3 column by 4 row table. Column 1 is titled Medium and includes the following entries: Ice, Water, Steam. Column 2 is titled Temperature (degrees Celsius) and includes the following entries: 0, 25, 100. Column 3 is titled Speed of Sound (meters per second) and includes the following entries: 3200 meters per second, 1500 meters per second, 346 meters per second. What is the difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water? 2. 1 m 3. 1 m 5. 2 m 8. 5 m.

Answer 1

The difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water is 3.1 m. Then the correct option is B.

What is wavelength?

The distance between two successive troughs or crests is known as the wavelength. The peak of the wave is the highest point, while the trough is the lowest.

The wavelength is also defined as the distance between two locations in a wave that have the same oscillation phase.

A frequency generator sends a 550 Hz sound wave through both water and ice.

The wavelength is given as

$\lambda = \dfrac{v}{f}$

f = frequency

v = velocity

Then the wavelength in the water will be

$\rm \lambda _w = \dfrac{1500}{550}\\\\\lambda _w = 2.73$

The wavelength in the ice will be

$\rm \lambda _I = \dfrac{3200}{550}\\\\\lambda _I = 5.82$

Then the difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water will be

$\rightarrow \lambda _I - \lambda_w \\\\\rightarrow 5.82 - 2.73 \\\\\rightarrow 3.09 \approx 3.1$

Thus, the difference in wavelength between the wave produced in ice and the wave produced in water is 3.1 m.
