When the same note is played on a sitar and a flute, the sound produced can be distinguished from each other because of the difference in :
pitch, loudness and quality
pitch and loudness
quality only
loudness only
The ultrasound waves can penetrate into matter to a large extent because they have
very high speed
very high frequency
very high wavelength
very high amplitude
A bat can hear sound at frequency up to 120 kHz. Determine the wavelength of sound in air at this frequency. Take the speed of sound in air to be 344 m/s.
2.87 mm
2.56 mm
3.58 mm
2.42 mm
A sound wave travels at a speed of 330 m/s. If its wavelength is 1.5 cm, calculate the frequency of the sound wave.
22 kHz
