3. A sound traveling in air has a velocity of 340 m/s and a frequency of 200 Hz. What is its wavelength? What would be the wavelength if the frequency was (a) 2, (b) six times as great? If the sound travels at three times the velocity in a denser medium while the frequency remains the same, what are the wavelengths in each of the preceding cases?
