6. Two loud speakers placed 2 m apart are connected to an audio signal generator that
is adjusted to produce sound waves of frequency 550 Hz. The detection of loud and
soft sounds as a person moves along a line is at 4.0 m from the loudspeakers. The
distance between 2 consecutive loud sounds is 0.5 m.
Calculate the
(a) Wavelength of the sound waves.
(b) speed of the sound waves.
