Speed = Frequency Wavelenght

Speed

Speed

Hence :

Speed of the Wave = 375 m/s.

=

Question :-

  • What is the Speed of a Wave that has a Frequency of 250 Hertz and a Wavelength of 1.5 meter ?

Answer :-

  • Speed of the Wave is 350 m/s .

Explanation :-

As per the provided information in the given question, we have been given that the Frequency of the Sound Wave is 250 Hertz. Its Wavelenght is given as 1.5 Meter. And, we have been asked to calculate the Speed of the Wave.

For calculating the Speed , we will use the Formula :-


\bigstar \: \: \boxed {\sf { \: Speed \: = \: Frequency \: * \: Wavelenght \: }}

Therefore , by Substituting the given values in the above Formula :-


\Longrightarrow \: \: \sf { \: Speed \: = \: Frequency \: * \: Wavelenght }


\Longrightarrow \: \: \sf { \: Speed \: = \: 250 \: * \: 1.5 }


\Longrightarrow \: \: \bf { \: Speed \: = \: 375 }

Hence :-

  • Speed of the Wave = 375 m/s .
