From comparison

\Delta p = \Delta p_{max} sin \left [ \omega \left ( t - \frac{x}{v} \right ) \right ]

\omega = 3000

\gamma = \frac{\omega }{x} = \frac{3000}{9} = \frac{1000}{3} m/s

 

Pressure Waves -

\Delta P= -\Delta P_{max}\cdot \cos \left ( Kx-\omega t \right )
 

- wherein

\Delta P_{max} = Maximum variation in pressure
