Question

Rank in order, from largest to smallest, the wavelengths       λ          1       to       λ          3       fro sound waves having frequencies       f          1        =  100  H  z  ,      f          2        =  1000  H  z, and       f          3        =  10  ,  000  H  z.

The explanation here is:The wavelength and frequency are given by the relationship:  λ  =  v      /    fThe equation above indicates that the wavelength varies inversely with the requency. Hence, the greater the frequency, the smaller the wavelength. Because       f          1        &amp;lt;      f          2        &amp;lt;      f          3      , it can be concluded that       λ          1        &amp;gt;      λ          2        &amp;gt;      λ          3      .
