Answer:

a) What is the wave speed of a wave that has a frequency of 50 Hz and a wavelength of 0.10 m?

5m/s

b) What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 20 m/s and a wavelength of 0.50 m?

40Hz

Step-by-step explanation:

a) What is the wave speed of a wave that has a frequency of 50 Hz and a wavelength of 0.10 m?

Wave speed(v) = Frequency(f) × Wavelength (λ)

= 50Hz × 0.10m

=5m/s

b) What is the frequency of a wave that has a wave speed of 20 m/s and a wavelength of 0.50 m?

The formula for Frequency when given wave speed and wave length = Wave speed/ wave length

f = v/λ

Frequency = 20m/s ÷ 0.50m

Frequency = 40Hz
