Question
A sound wave has a wavelength of 3.0 m. The distance from a compression center to the adjacent rarefaction center is :
Options
A.0.75 m
B.1.5 m
C.3.0 m
D.need to know wave speed
Solution
Sol. Distance between adjacent compression centres = λ
⇒ Distance between adjacent compression centre & rarefaction centre = $\frac{\lambda}{2}$ = 1.5 m
