Homework Statement
Estimate the highest possible frequency (in Hertz), and the smallest possible wavelength, of a sound wave in aluminium, due to the discrete atomic
structure of this material. We're given the mass of aluminum, Young's Modulus, and mass density.
Homework Equations
w=k* √(Y/ρ)
The Attempt at a Solution
Basically, I know that the largest wave has to fit inside the interatomic distance, but I don't know how to find this distance.
