Question 17 of 25 A sound wave from a brass bell passes through the air with a
wavelength of 3.5 m. When the sound wave originated in the
brass bell, its wavelength was 47 m. If the sound wave has a
constant frequency of 100 Hz, what was its speed as it
traveled through the brass bell? (The equation for wave speed
is v= f*1.)
A. 3,500 m/s
B. 4,700 m/s
C. 350 m/s
D. 470 m/s

The speed of the wave as it travelled through the brass bell is;

B. 4,700 m/s

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The wavelength of the sound wave produced from the brass bell,  = 3.5 m

The wavelength of the wave in the brass bell,  = 47 m

The frequency of the wave in the brass bell, f = 100 Hz

The given equation for wave speed, v = f × λ

Therefore, the speed of the wave as it travelled through the brass bell, , is given as follows;

= f × = 100 Hz × 47 m = 4,700 m/s  

The speed of the wave as it travelled through the brass bell =   = 4,700 m/s

i am pretty sure it is c because when people are closer together, they cannot move as freely. picture being in a mostly full elevator, for instance. the people are right next to you, and you can barely move.
