Detailed Solution

The frequency of the wave whose wavelength is

1 m

340 Hz

.
Given,
The wavelength of the wave,

λ = 1 m

The velocity of sound in air,

v = 340 m s^{- 1}

.
We know that the velocity of a sound wave

(v)

is the number of wavelengths covered in unit time. Mathematically,

V = λν

where

λ

is wavelength and

ν

is frequency. It can also be written as

\Rightarrow ν = \frac{V}{λ}

On substituting the given values, we get the frequency as

\Rightarrow ν = \frac{340}{1}

\Rightarrow ν = 340 Hz

Hence, the frequency of such wave is

340 Hz
