Answer:

22.1 m

Explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is related to its speed and its frequency by the equation:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{v}{f}[/tex]

where

f is the frequency

v is the speed

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

In this problem, we have v = 331 m/s and f = 15 Hz, so we can use the equation above to calculate the wavelength of the wave:

[tex]\lambda=\frac{v}{f}=\frac{331 m/s}{15 Hz}=22.1 m[/tex]
