Properties of Waves and Calculating Wave Speed

The video tutorial explains wave properties, focusing on amplitude, wavelength, frequency, and period. It distinguishes between transverse and longitudinal waves, highlighting their unique characteristics. The tutorial also covers wave speed calculation using the formula v = fλ, with practical examples involving sound waves and microwaves. Key concepts include the relationship between frequency and period, and the conversion of units for accurate calculations.

How is the frequency of a wave related to its period?

Calculate the wavelength of a sound wave with a frequency of 500 Hertz traveling at a speed of 6000 meters per second.
