(b) Distance between six successive node
$ = \frac{{5\lambda }}{2} = 85cm$ ==>$\lambda = \frac{{2 \times 85}}{5} = 34\,cm = 0.34\,m$
Therefore speed of sound in gas
$ = n\lambda = 1000 \times 0.34 = 340\,m/s$
$ = \frac{{5\lambda }}{2} = 85cm$ ==>$\lambda = \frac{{2 \times 85}}{5} = 34\,cm = 0.34\,m$
Therefore speed of sound in gas
$ = n\lambda = 1000 \times 0.34 = 340\,m/s$
