Question

Calculate the frequency of a water wave that has a wavelength of 0.5 m and a speed of 4.0 m/s

Answer 1

Answer:

f = 8 Hz

Explanation:

Wavelength of wave = 0.5 m

Speed of wave = 4 m/s

Frequency = ?

Solution:

Formula:

f = v/λ

f = frequency

v = speed

λ = wavelength

Now we will put the values in formula.

f = v/λ

f = 4 m/s / 0.5 m

f = 8 s⁻¹

s⁻¹ = Hz

f = 8 Hz
