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.
Is the frequency of sound measured in units called decibels?  The frequency of sound is measured in Hertz named after   Heinrich Rudolf Hertz, the first person to measure  electromagnetic waves. A single Hertz represents a single â¦cycle per  second. Humans can hear sound from about 40 hertz to nearly 15000  Hertz (also called 15 kilohertz, abbreviated as 15 Khz). Some  people with exceptional hearing range may go up to 20 Khz. Some  animals can hear even higher frequencies.     Decibels are a measurement of how loud a sound is.
