how would you find the velocity if the frequency was 256 Hz and the wave length came out to be .56m. using v=331(m/s) + T[0.6(m / s*celcius)] formula. what what does m and s stand for? i know that T stands for temperature. but idk what the other variables are. beause i dont have a "second" on my thing.

  1. m and s could stand for anything.  So you should go back and read your text book to be sure.

    But they probably stand for meters and seconds.

    That said, your question doesnt make much sense.  The velocity  even according to your v equation, isnt a function of frequency or wavelenght...just temperature.  

    m and s are not variables for you to plug numbers into.  They are just units.  Like you are 1.5m tall  (1.5 meters)   You are looking for a velocity.... thats like miles per hour....or meters per second  m/s..... you dont need a "second" on your thing.  The seconds are passing all around you....just use some of them :-p

    m/s is metres per second
