Periodic oscillation of the sliding layer


An avalanche of sand along some rare desert sand dunes can produce a booming that is loud enough to be heard l0 km away. The booming apparently results from a periodic oscillation of the sliding layer of sand-the layer's thickness expands and contracts. If the emitted frequency is 90 Hz, what are:

(a) The period of the thickness oscillation and

(b) The wavelength of the sound?
