प्रश्न
Define the terms 'frequency', 'wavelength' and 'velocity' of a sound wave. What is the relation between them?
उत्तर
Frequency: The number of complete waves or cycles produced in one second.
Wavelength: The minimum distance in which a sound wave repeats itself.
Velocity of a wave: The distance travelled by a wave in one second.
We know the relation between velocity, frequency, and wavelength
ν = f × λ,
where ν is the velocity of sound, F the frequency, and λ the wavelength.

Sound cannot travel in vacuum.
Explain the experiment, with a neat diagram, to prove the following:
'Sound needs material medium for propagation.'
A boy fires a gun and another boy at a distance hears the sound of fire 2.5s after seeing the flash. If the speed of sound in air 340 m/s, find distance between the boys.
Assuming the speed of sound in air equal to 340 m/s and in water equal to 1360 m/s, find the time taken to travel a distance 1700 m by sound in (i) air (ii) water.
What are the requisites of the medium for the propagation of sound? Briefly, explain them.
