1.478 cm is the wavelength of this sound.
The separation between neighboring identical portions of a sound wave is consequently known as its wavelength. The separation between adjacent compressions in a sound wave is equal to one wavelength, just to the distance between adjacent crests in a transverse wave.
There are three types of sound waves: pressure waves, mechanical waves, and longitudinal waves.
We know that,
wavelength and frequency of sound are related with the relation,
λ = v/f
Given,
velocity of sound in air (v) = 340 m/sec = 34000 cm/sec
frequency (f) = 23 KHz = 23 × 10³ Hz
or, λ = (34000 cm/sec) / (23 × 10³)
or, λ = 1.478 cm
