Problem
Answer the following.
(1) In a liquid with density 1300kg m−3, longitudinal waves with frequency 400Hz are found to have wavelength 8.00m. Calculate the bulk modulus of the liquid.
(2) A metal bar with a length of 1.50m has density 6400kg m−3. Longitudinal sound waves take 3.90×10−4s to travel from one end of the bar to the other. What is Young's modulus for this metal?
