Understanding the Relationship

* Frequency (f): The number of wave cycles passing a point per second (measured in Hertz, Hz).

* Wavelength (λ): The distance between two corresponding points on successive waves (measured in meters, m).

* Speed (v): The distance the wave travels per second (measured in meters per second, m/s).

The Formula

The relationship between these three is:

* v = fλ

Calculation

1. Given:

* Frequency (f) = 250 Hz

* Wavelength (λ) = 1.3 meters

2. Substitute into the formula:

* v = (250 Hz) * (1.3 m)

3. Calculate:

* v = 325 m/s

Therefore, the speed of the sound waves is 325 meters per second.
