To determine the wavelength of a sound wave with a frequency of 100 Hz, we can use the formula:

Wavelength (λ) = Speed of Sound (v) / Frequency (f)

The speed of sound in air at room temperature is approximately 343 meters per second (m/s). Plugging in the values:

Wavelength (λ) = 343 m/s / 100 Hz

Wavelength (λ) = 3.43 meters (m)

Therefore, a sound wave with a frequency of 100 Hz has a wavelength of 3.43 meters.
