Sound travels through a guitar string at 600 m/s, making a sound wave in the air with a speed of 333 m/s. In 1–2 sentences, explain how the wavelength and frequency of the wave in the string compare to the wavelength and frequency of the wave in the air.
Wave velocity of the sound = frequency * wavelength.
The frequency and wavelength depend on the medium through which the sound passes and they are both greater in the guitar string than in air as the string is denser than the air. So the sound travles faster through the guitar string.
