Question 399391: 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 33 cycles per second? Round to the nearest tenth of a meter per cycle. WHERE DO I BEGIN..HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

You can put this solution on YOUR website! 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 33 cycles per second?
:
Begin by looking at the given formula: w =
:
Look at which of these 3 variable is given:
r = 344 m/sec
f = 33 cps
:
Substitute these in the original formula
w =
w = 10.4 meters is the wavelength

Not that hard, right?
