Question 10 • Physics

A flute plays a note with a frequency of 266 Hz What is the speed of sound if the wavelength is 1 point 3 m ?

Answer
A
346 m/s
B
205 m/s
C
102 m/s
D
692 m/s

Explanation

Use the wave-speed formula: speed = frequency × wavelength. Substituting the values gives 266 Hz × 1.3 m = 345.8 m/s, which rounds to 346 m/s. So the correct choice is A, 346 m/s.
