Humans can hear thunder at different frequencies. These correspond to wavelengths ranging from 2.75 to 16.5 meters. If the speed of sound is approximately 330 m/s, what frequencies of thunder can humans hear? (1 point)
2.75 to 16.5 hertz
0.0083 to 0.05 hertz
20 to 120 hertz
907.5 to 5,445 hertz

Use f = v/λ. For λ = 16.5 m: f = 330/16.5 = 20 Hz. For λ = 2.75 m: f = 330/2.75 = 120 Hz. So 20 to 120 hertz.
