The diagram above represents part of a wave motion in air. If the wave travels with a speed of 300ms-1calculate the frequency of the wave.
  • A.
    360Hz
  • B.
    300Hz
  • C.
    250Hz
  • D.
    150Hz
  • E.
    100Hz
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

21/2λ = 3m; λ = 1.2m v= 300
f = v/x = 300/1.2 = 250Hz
