Question

Wave speed (v) is equal to the product of what two components?

A) Frequency and wavelength
B) Period and frequency
C) Frequency and amplitude
D) Amplitude and wavelength

Answer 1

frequency and wavelength

Answer 2

Frequency and wavelength

Step-by-step explanation:

Wave speed is equal to the product of frequency and wavelength. Mathematically, its formula is given by :

`v=f* \lambda`

f is the frequency of a wave. It is equal to the number of oscillations per unit time.

`\lambda` is the wavelength. It is the distance between crest to crest or trough to trough.

So, the correct option is (a)
