Problem

A loudspeaker emits sound waves with a time period of 2.0 ms2.0\,\text{ms}. (a) Calculate the frequency of the sound. (b) If the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s340\,\text{m/s}, determine the wavelength of these waves. (c) The loudspeaker is taken to a hill station where the speed of sound is 330 m/s330\,\text{m/s}. Without changing the frequency, find the new wavelength of the sound there.
