Question

A wave has a wavelength of 5m and a frequency of 68 hertz what is the speed

Answer 1

Therefore the Speed of a wave is 340 m/s.

Explanation:

Given:

Wave Length = 5 m

Frequency = 68 hertz

To Find:

Speed = ?

Solution:

Wave Speed:

Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second.

Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency.

The Formula is given by

`Speed = Wavelength* Frequency`

Substituting the values we get

`Speed = 5* 68=340\ m/s`

Therefore the Speed of a wave is 340 m/s.
