    Sound waves travel at 350 m/s through a warm air and at 3500 m/s through brass. The wave-     length of a 700 Hz acoustic wave as it enters brass from warm air

    A)  increases by a factor 20

    B)  increases by a factor 10

    C)  decreases by a factor 20

    D)  decreases by a factor 10

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Velocity of sound \[v=n\lambda \] \[\frac{{{v}_{1}}}{{{v}_{2}}}=\frac{{{n}_{1}}{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{n}_{2}}{{\lambda }_{2}}}\]                               (but \[{{n}_{1}}={{n}_{2}}\]) \[{{\lambda }_{2}}={{\lambda }_{1}}\frac{{{v}_{2}}}{{{v}_{1}}}={{\lambda }_{1}}\times 10\] \[{{\lambda }_{2}}=10\,{{\lambda }_{1}}\]
