Wave Speed Equation Practice

Front

What is the wave speed equation?

Back

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

Front

Define wavelength.

Back

Wavelength is the distance between successive crests (or troughs) of a wave, typically measured in meters.

Front

What is frequency in the context of waves?

Back

Frequency is the number of complete wave cycles that pass a point in one second, measured in Hertz (Hz).

Front

How do you calculate frequency using wave speed and wavelength?

Back

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