Answer:
Length = 3.136 meters
Explanation:
Given the following data;
Speed = 345 m/s
Frequency = 440 Hz
To find how long is the tube;
First of all, we would determine the wavelength;
Wavelength = speed/frequency
Wavelength = 345/440
Wavelength = 0.784 m
Next, we would determine how long is the tube using the formula;
Substituting into the formula, we have;
Length = 3.136 meters
