Answer

(a) $318.51Hz$ (b) $1.099m$

Work Step by Step

(a) We can determine the required frequency as follows: $\nu=\sqrt{\frac{F}{Lm}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\nu=\sqrt{\frac{7m/s}{(0.3m)(0.23\times 10^{-3}Kg)}}$ $\nu=318.51Hz$ (b) The required wavelength can be calculated as follows: $\lambda=\frac{v}{\nu}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $\lambda=\frac{350m/s}{318.51Hz}$ $\implies \lambda=1.099m$
