Velocity of Sound Waves

The velocity with which the particles of the medium vibrate in order to transfer the energy in the form of a _____ is called particle velocity.

Wave velocity is the velocity with which particles vibrate during the propagation of a wave.

If a sound wave travels with a frequency of $1.25 \times {10}^4 \mathrm{Hz}$ at $344 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$, the wavelength will be -

Two observers are stationed in two boats $4.5 \mathrm{km}$ apart. After how many seconds a sound signal sent by one, under water, reaches the other? (The speed of sound in the water is $1500 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$).

The velocity of sound in a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the _____ of the gas.

What will be the wavelength (in meters) of sound having $1655 \mathrm{Hz}$ as its frequency, when it travels with a speed of $331 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$? (Answer upto one decimal place).

The density of the gas does not affect the speed of sound in the gas.

Suppose that a sound wave and a light wave have the same frequency, then their wavelengths will be the same.

The velocity of sound in air at a particular temperature is $330 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$. What will be its value when temperature is doubled and the pressure is halved?

Velocity of sound in a gaseous medium is $330 \raisebox{1ex}{$\mathrm{m}$}\!\left/ \!\raisebox{-1ex}{$\mathrm{s}$}\right.$. If the pressure is increased by $4$ times without causing a change in the temperature, the velocity of sound in the gas is:

What are the factors that affect the speed of sound in gases?

Suppose that a sound wave and a light wave have the same frequency, then which one has a longer wavelength?

The thunder of cloud is heard $9.8$ seconds later than the flash of lightning. If the speed of sound in air is $330 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$, what will be the height of cloud in metres?

A sound wave has a frequency of $200 \mathrm{Hz}$ and a speed of $400 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ in a medium. Find the wavelength of the sound wave in metres.

Air temperature in the Rajasthan desert can reach $46°\mathrm{C}$. What is the velocity of sound (in $\mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$) in air at that temperature? (Take $V_{\mathrm{o}} = 331 \mathrm{m} {\mathrm{s}}^{-1}$ and answer upto two decimal places). 

The frequency of a tuning fork is $256 \mathrm{Hz}$ and velocity of sound in air is $350 \mathrm{m}/\mathrm{s}$. Find the distance covered by the wave when the fork completes $16$ vibrations. (Answer upto three decimal places). 

Suppose that a sound wave and a light wave have the same frequency, then which one has a longer wavelength?
