Topic: Chapter 19: Some wiggle room A hummingbird flaps its wings up to 70 times per second, producing a 70 Hz
hum as it flies by. If the speed of sound is 340 m/s, how far does the sound
travel between wing flaps?
= 4.86 m
= 58.9 m
= 0.206 m
= 23,800 m

4.86 m

Explanation:

Given that,

The frequency produced by a humming bird, f = 70 Hz

The speed of sound, v = 340 m/s

We need to find how far does the sound  travel between wing flaps. Let the distance is equal to its wavelength. So,

So, the sound travel 4.86 m between wings flaps.
