When a tuning fork produces sound waves in air, which one of the following is same in the material of tuning fork as well as in air
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
B
Speed of sound depends on pressure, temperature, humidity, and motion of air. While there is no effect of frequency on the speed of sound. Sound waves of different frequencies travel with the same speed in air although their wavelength in air are different. If the speed of sound were dependent on frequency, then we could not have enjoyed the orchestra.
