113 Hz Wavelength

How Long Is a 113 Hz Wavelength?

A 113 Hz sound wave has a wavelength of 3.04 meters, 303.73 cm, 9.96 feet (9 feet and 11.58 inches) or 119.58 inches when traveling in air at 20°C (68°F).

The formula for the wavelenght is λ = c/f where:

  • c is the celerity (speed) of sound = 343.21 m/s or 1126.03 ft/s in air at 20°C (68°F).
  • f is the frequency = 113 Hz
which gives a wavelength λ of 3.04 meters, or 9.96 feet.

113 Hz Wavelength Depending on Temperature

The speed of sound in air depends on temperature. Here is how the wavelenght of a 113 Hz sound wave will vary according to temperature:

113 Hz Half Wavelength and Standing Waves

The half wavelength of a 113 Hz sound wave is 1.52 meters, 151.86 cm, 4.98 feet (4 feet and 11.79 inches) or 59.79 inches when travelling in air at 20°C (68°F).

Modes (or standing waves) will occur at 113 Hz in rooms where two opposing walls (axial mode), edges (tangential mode) or corners (oblique mode) are spaced by a distance d = nλ/2 where:

  • n is a natural (positive integer greater than or equal to 1)
  • λ is the 113 Hz wavelength = 3.04 meters, or 9.96 feet in air at 20°C (68°F).

113 Hz Standing Waves Distances

n Distance (m) Distance (ft)
11.524.98
23.049.96
34.5614.95
46.0719.93
57.5924.91
69.1129.89
710.6334.88
812.1539.86
913.6744.84
1015.1949.82

Given the relatively large 113 Hz half wavelength, standing waves will occur at that frequency in small listening rooms.

You can try to minimze the room modes at 113 Hz by trying different speaker positions, listening positions or by placing bass traps. These can absorb frequencies as low as 63 Hz.

How To Convert 113 Hz To ms

A Hz (Hertz) is a cycle (or period) per second.

Because a 113 Hz wave will ocillate 113 times per second, we can find the time of a single cycle (or period) with the formula p = 1/f where:

  • f is the frequency of the wave = 113 Hz

The result will be expressed in seconds, so let's multiply by 1000 to get miliseconds:

1 / 113 Hz * 1000 = 8.85 ms.
