When a sound wave moves from low to higher temperatures, what happens to the frequency, velocity, & wavelength? Does it increase, decrease or remain the same?

The coldest and hottest temperatures ever recorded in the United States are -83°F (210 K) and 134°F (330 K), respectively. What is the speed of sound in air at each temperature?

A boat produces water waves as it sails along a river. You notice that 13 waves hit the bank in 5.4 seconds. If distance between successive wave crests is 3.9 centimeters, how far would these waves travel in 31 seconds. Express your answer in centimeters to at least 3 significant figures.

A geological disturbance in San Andreas fault generated a seismic wave that was detected in Phoenix, AZ, approximately 1000 km from the epicenter. If such waves travel at an average speed of 6.5 km/s, what would be the time-lag between the disturbance and the detection? How does this speed compare with that of sound waves in air at a day temperature of 23°C? 2.6 min, vseismic/ Vsound 19 O 2.6 min, vseismie/ Vsound 26 O 2.9 min, vseismie/ Vsound 29 O 3.2 min, vseismic/ Vsound 21

An organ pipe (closed at one end) produces a mixture of 1100 Hz and 1833 Hz. These frequencies correspond to the first and second overtones respectively. What is the frequency of the first harmonic?

A standing wave is created on a slinky using a frequency of 1.86 Hz. If the speed of the wave down the slinky is 1.42 m/s, how far apart will the nodes on the slinky be?
