Concept explainers
To rank: The given tones according to wavelength, from least to greatest.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency.
As
Hence wavelength increases with decreasing frequency and vice versa. When the given frequencies are ranked from greatest to least, their wavelengths will be of the order least to greatest.
The tones in order of least to greatest wavelengths can be ranked as:
Conclusion:
The tones in order of least to greatest wavelengths can be ranked as:
