Answer

Please see the work below.

Work Step by Step

We know that $v=\sqrt{\frac{\gamma P}{\rho}}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $v=\sqrt{\frac{(1.61)(620000)}{4.5}}$ $v=471\frac{m}{s}$ Now we can find the frequency as $f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$ We plug in the known values to obtain: $f=\frac{471}{0.50}=940Hz$
