Question

A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose sizeis approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the batmakes. If bats emit a chirp at a frequency of 53.0 kHz, and if the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s,what is the smallest insect a bat can detect?
The answer should be in mm A bat can detect small objects, such as an insect, whose sizeis approximately equal to one wavelength of the sound the batmakes. If bats emit a chirp at a frequency of 53.0 kHz, and if the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s,what is the smallest insect a bat can detect?
The answer should be in mm

Explanation / Answer

you take the v which is v = f, the answer was 340m/s/53kHz = 6.415mm
