What is the smallest insect the bat can detect

Reference no: EM13658089

A bat can detect very small objects, such as an insect whose length is about equal to one wavelength of the sound the bat makes. If a bat emits chirps at a frequency of 61.0 kHz, and if the speed of sound in air is339 m/s, what is the smallest insect the bat can detect?
