Wave Calculations

Front

What is the formula to calculate the wavelength of a wave?

Back

Wavelength (λ) = Velocity (v) / Frequency (f)

Front

What is the relationship between frequency and wavelength in waves?

Back

Higher frequency waves have shorter wavelengths.

Front

If a wave travels at a speed of 340 m/s and has a frequency of 540 Hz, what is its wavelength?

Back

0.63 m

Front

What is the speed of a wave with a frequency of 50 Hz and a wavelength of 10 m?

Back

500 m/s

Front

How do you calculate the frequency of a wave if you know its velocity and wavelength?

Back

Frequency (f) = Velocity (v) / Wavelength (λ)
