Assume that the displacement (s) of air is proportional to the pressure difference (Δp)(\Delta p)(Δp) created by a sound wave. Displacement (s) further depends on the speed of sound (v), density of air(ρ)(\rho )(ρ) and the frequency (f). If Δp 10Pa,n 300m/s,p 1kg/m3\Delta p~10Pa,n~300m/s,p~1kg/{m}^{3}Δp 10Pa,n 300m/s,p 1kg/m3 f 1000Hzf~1000Hzf 1000Hz, then s will be of the order of (take the multiplicative constant to be 1 )
