Question 36

An acoustic hum detected by an underwater research vessel has a frequency of 85 Hz.

The speed of this acoustic wave propagating through seawater is 1530 m/s.

Calculate the wavelength of this acoustic wave.

Use the equation:

wave speed=frequency×wavelength \text{wave speed} = \text{frequency} \times \text{wavelength} wave speed=frequency×wavelength
