A wave has a wavelength of 0.02m and period of 8.0*10^-2 seconds. calculate it's speed. (showing working)​

Respuesta :

Answer:

v = 0.25 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

The wavelength of a wave, [tex]\lambda=0.02\ m[/tex]

Time period of the wave, [tex]T=8\times 10^{-2}\ s[/tex]

We need to find the speed of a wave. The speed of wave is given by :

[tex]v=\dfrac{\lambda}{T}\\\\v=\dfrac{0.02}{8\times 10^{-2}}\\\\v=0.25\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of the wave is 0.25 m/s.
