Question

What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 30 m/s and a wavelength of 0.60 m?

Answer 1

wave length = 30/6 = 5m

Explanation:

wave travels 30m in one second.

wave completes 6 cycles in one second.

Answer 2

50 Hz = Frequency

Explanation:

The formula to find the speed of a wave is found by

Speed = Wavelength x Frequency where the frequency is in HZ and the wavelength is in meters

30 = .60*Frequency

Divide each side by .6

30/.6 = .6 Frequency /.6

50 Hz = Frequency
