In air at normal atmosphere at 0 oC the speed of sound is 331.2 m/s. The wavelength of a 500 Hz tone can be calculated as. Î» = (331.2 m/s) / (500 Hz). = 0.662 m.
1 The speed of Sound wave varies with Pressure and Temperature of the medium. 2  Sound wave travels at a speed v = Î» f. 3  At Standard Pressure & Temperature in air the speed is calculated equal to v = 333 m/s. 4  Sound Wave that is audible to human ear is in the frequency range 20Hz - 20KHz.
