Question

A student standing in a canyon yells &quot;echo&quot; and her voice produces a sound wave of the frequency of f=0.54 kHz. The echo takes t=4.8s to return to the student. Assume the speed of sound through the atmosphere at this location is v=328 m/s  a) what is the wavelength of the soundwave in meters?  b) input the expression for the distance, d, the canyon wall is from the student. (answer should look like d=&quot;

Given values; λ= wavelength of sound d= distance from to student f=0.54 kHz=540Hz y=4.8 s v=328 ms Here the wavelength of sound is given by; λ=vf λ=328 ms540 Hz λ=0.61 m The wavelength we found is of soundwave d=vt2 d=328×4.82 d=787.2 m
