Question 441615: Solve the problem. Be sure to show all of your work.
The wavelength, w, in meters per cycle, of a musical note is given by
w=r/f
where r is the speed of sound in meters per second and f is the frequency in cycles per second. The speed of sound in air is 344 m/sec. What is the wavelength of a note whose frequency in air is 45 cycles per second? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter per cycle


Thank you!

The wavelength, w, in meters per cycle, of a musical note is given by
w=r/f
where r is the speed of sound in meters per second and f is the frequency in cycles per second. The speed of sound in air is 344 m/sec.
----------------
What is the wavelength of a note whose frequency in air is 45 cycles per second? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter per cycle
--------------------
w = (344 m/sec]/[45 cycles/sec]
---
w = 7.6444 meters/cycle
