Question:

A constant frequency signal from a signal generator is fed to two loudspeakers placed 1.5 m apart. A student, who is 8.0 m away from the loudspeakers, walks across in a line parallel to the line between the loudspeakers. The student measures the distance between successive spots of loudness to be 1.2 m.
Calculate:
a. The wavelength of the sound
b. The frequency of the sound (assume the speed of sound is 330 m s−1)
