Answer:

The correct option is the option;


\lambda = (v)/(f)

Step-by-step explanation:

The wavelength of a wave is the distance between two successive crests of the wave

Therefore, the wavelength, λ, is given by the fraction of the velocity, v, of the wave divided by the frequency, f, (the number of cycles that pass through a point) of the wave

Mathematically, we have;


The \ wavelength, \ \lambda = (The \ wave \ velocity, \ v)/(The \ wave \ frequency, \ f)


\lambda = (v)/(f)
