What is the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 6 hertz and a wavelength of 2 meters?
Speed = (wavelength) x (frequency) = (2 x 6) = 12 meters per second.That's the wave's speed. "Velocity" is something different, not just a wordto use when you mean "speed" but you want to sound more technical.
How many megahertz in one meter?
I'm going to assume that you're talking about the two familiar types of identificationof radio stations ... their frequency stated in megahertz, and their wavelength statedin meters. (If that's not what you're talking about, then the question is absurd.)The relationship may be a bit more complicated than what you're expecting:Wavelength (in meters) = 300 / frequency (in megahertz)Frequency (in megahertz) = 300 / wavelength (in meters)
What is more 12 yd or 12 meters?
12 meters is 9.36% longer than 12 yd. (rounded)
What is the equation for wavelenght?
Several of them. Wavelength = speed of light/Hertz Wavelength = Planck's constant/mass of particle*Hertz And a few more that can be manipulated to find wavelength that I will let you discover on your own.
Which is more meters or yards?
Meters

How are the energy and the frequency of an electromagnetic wave related?
For any point on the electromagnetic spectrum, the product of(wavelength) multiplied by (frequency) is 299,792,458 meters per second.That's the speed of the wave.
How high can a Impala jump?
An impala can jump more than 9 meters and 2.5 meters high.
How do radio waves and x rays compare in terms of wavelength and energy?
Radio waves are longer than X-rays and because energy is inversely proportional to wavelength, X-Rays have more energy. The formula is 1.25uevm/wavelength, that is the energy is 1.25 micro electron volt divided by the wavelength in meters.
What wave would have more enery one with a long wavelength or a short wavelength?
Both a wave with long wavelength and a wave with short wavelength can have a lot of energy, or little energy.Specifically in the case of electromagnetic waves, a short wavelength corresponds to high energy - but this is only the energy PER PHOTON. But note that each of such waves usually consists of a lot of photons.

How is the energy of a photon related to its frequency and wavelength?
wavelength : wavelength is the distance from crest of one wave to the crest of next frequency : the number of waves that passes a given point in one second energy : the amplitude or intensity of a wave energy and frequency is directly proportional to each other when energy is high frequency is also high wavelength and frequency or energy is inversly proportional to each other when wavelength is high frequency or energy is low
You dip your finger repeatedly into a puddle of water and make waves What happens to the wavelength if you dip your finger more frequently?
The wavelength will shorten.
What is the relationship between a photons energy and its wavelength?
A high energy light will have a shorter wavelength than a low energy light. If the wavelength goes down, then the frequency goes up. When calculating energy in the equation, E=hv, frequency (v) is the variable, not the wavelength. So in the equation, if you wanted a more energy (E), you would have the frequency be large. For the frequency to be big, then the wavelength has to be low.
What is more dangerous high frequency radiation or low frequency radiation?
heya. Okay so I had the same question for a sheet i had to do in my physics lesson.The harm done to humans by EM radiation depends on the intensity and wavelength of the radiation.high frequency radiation has more potential to damage human DNA than longer wavelengths (Low frequency). That's why UV radiation tends to promote skin cancer while visible light has no known tendency to do so. Short-wavelength radiation can also carry more energy than long-wavelength radiation of the same intensity.Long-wavelength radiation is more known for its tendency to cause human tissue to heat up, which can cause death more quickly than short-wavelength radiation. Microwave energy is one example of this; fairly high-intensity microwaves are used to heat food in a microwave oven.So really high frequency is more dangerous, such as gamma rays :)source: Is_electromagnetic_radiation_harmful_to_humans
Which transmits more energy if two waves has same amplitude and same speed but differ in wavelength?
The wave with the shorter wavelength will transmit more energy than the one with the longer wavelength if two waves have the same amplitude and same speed but differ in wavelength. The energy transmitted by the shorter wavelength will normally be four times more than the energy transmitted by the longer wavelength.
Why does radio wave travel through walls and a light wave cannot?
Electromagnetic waves with higher frequencies (longer wavelengths) are absorbed more efficiently by material objects, so have shallower effective penetration. Radio waves range in wavelength between roughly 0.001 - 3,000 meters. Visible light waves range in wavelength between roughly 0.0000004 - 0.0000007 meters.
