Wavelength Revisited
We now have two expressions for the velocity of sound:
v = f
and
v = 20.1 ![]()
therefore
f
= 20.1
and
=
(
in metres)
Example. What is the wavelength of concert A (440Hz) at 20 deg. C?

Calculate what it is at 21 deg.C ( = 0.783m)
Here are some examples of wavelengths at 21 deg. C (294 deg. K):
