A person is listening to a tone of 500 Hz sitting at a distance of 450 m from the source of the sound. What is the time interval between successive compressions from the source?

##### Solution :-

The time interval between successive compressions from the source is equal to the time period and time period is reciprocal of the frequency.

Therefore, it can be calculated as follows:

T= $$\frac{1}{F}$$

T= $$\frac{1}{500}$$

T = 0.002 s.
