The wavelength of the voice sound wave traveling through the air is longer than when it travels through the door.
The velocity of the sound wave affects the frequency and wavelength, as the speed of sound through the door is faster than through the air, resulting in a shorter wavelength. The frequency remains the same regardless of the medium through which the sound is traveling.
Samuel is trying to hear what is being said on the other side of the door, but the sound of the voices has to pass through a thin door. The
sound travels at a velocity of 343 m/s through air, and 560 m/s through the door. How does the frequency and wavelength of the man's
voice traveling through air compare to it traveling through the door? Choose the 2 that BEST describe the two characteristics in this
eavesdropping scenario.
(1 point)
The frequency of the voice sound wave traveling through the air is slower than when it travels through
the door.
The frequency of the voice sound wave traveling through the air is the same as when it travels through
the door.
The frequency of the voice sound wave changes with the distance the speaker is from the door. It
decreases as it travels across the air in the room.
The frequency of the voice sound wave traveling through the air is faster than when it travels through the
door.
