It depends on the speed of sound considered for the situation, as sound can travel at different speeds depending on the temperature of the air, its density, composition, etc.

For all types of waves (sound waves included), the wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave, divided by its frequency. So, if you consider the speed of sound to be 330 m/s, the wavelength in question would be equal to 330/50, or 6.6 meters. If you consider the speed to be 340 m/s, the wavelength would be 6.8 meters.

Why frequency of thunder is 50 hertz and frequency of whistle is 1000hertz?

It just is. Sound behaves like a wave, and the pitch of the sound affects the wavelength. And wavelength is directly related to the frequency. A high pitched sound has a a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound.


How does increasing the wavelength by 50 percent affect the frequency of a wave on a rope?

Increasing the wavelength by 50 percent will decrease the frequency of the wave by one-third. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional - as wavelength increases, frequency decreases, and vice versa.


What is the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 20 hertzthe lowest note you can hear as a sound?

The wavelength of a wave is the wave speed divided by the frequency, so you have to know the speed of the wave then divide it by the frquency. You will probably want to change thr frequency to just hz if the speed is m/s, or leave it as khz if the speed is in km/s.

What is the wavelength of a wave with the speed of 50 m per sec and frequency of 100 Hz?

The wavelength of a wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of wave / frequency. In this case, the wavelength would be 0.5 meters, as 50 m/s divided by 100 Hz equals 0.5 meters.


What is a wavelength of a wave with a velocity of 50 ms and a frequency of 5 hz?

The wavelength of a wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength (λ) = velocity (v) / frequency (f). Substituting the given values, λ = 50 m/s / 5 Hz = 10 meters. Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is 10 meters.


What is the frequency of a wave that has a wavelength of 20 cm and a speed of 10 ms?

Convert the cm to meters, to have compatible units. Then use the fact that the frequency times the wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave. In this case, you can divide the speed by the wavelength, to get the frequency.


Is there a wavelength for electricity?

Sure, if it is AC (alternating current), you can calculate a wavelength. For example, in copper the speed is roughly 2/3 the speed of light in a vacuum, that is, 200,000 km/sec.; electricity in our homes comes at a frequency of 50 or 60 cycles per second; so (assuming the frequency of 50 cycles), that would give you a wavelength of 200,000 km/sec / 50 Hertz = 4000 km.Sure, if it is AC (alternating current), you can calculate a wavelength.
