Jake calculates that the frequency of a wave is 230 hertz, and its wave is moving at 460 m/s. What is the wavelength of the wave?

Sagot :

to find the wavelength of a wave you have to divide the speed by the frequency..it will equal 2 m...460/230=2
V=F Ω
wave speed=frequency*wavelength

Explanation:

The relation between frequency, wavelength, and velocity is as follows.

                   [tex]f = \frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex]

where,     f = frequency

                v = velocity

          [tex]\lambda[/tex] = wavelength

It is given that frequency of the wave is 230 hertz (or 230 per second) and velocity of wave is 460 m/s. Therefore, calculate the wavelength as follows.

               [tex]f = \frac{v}{}[/tex]

or,            [tex]\lambda = \frac{v}{f}[/tex]

                                    = [tex]\frac{460 m/s}{230s^{-1}}[/tex]

                                    = 2 m

Therefore, we can conclude that the wavelength of the wave is 2 m.
