If you are looking for the simple answer, you measure its horizontal distance.
wave length = wave speed divided by its frequency
Wavelength*Frequency = Velocity of the wave. or Wavelength/Period = Velocity of the wave.
speed= frqquency*wavelength
draw a triangle and make 3 areas in the triangle. on the top is S or Speed. on the bottom left is F or Frequency. and on the bottom right is a bckwards/upside down Y for Wavelength. then S divided by For Y. and F times Y. will get you wavelength and what you need. draw what i just said.
Wavelength is halved.
By examining a standing wave you can observe the frequency, wavelength, wave speed, and amplitude of the wave.
To get the wavelength of a wave simply divide the wavespeed with its frequency.
No. When a standing wave is created, a measurement of node to node is half of the wavelength, and therefore must be doubled to calculate one whole wavelength.
The wavelength of the standing wave is 3.00 m, that is double the string length of 1.50 m.
The progressive wave has to meet its own reflected wave. So both have same amplitude, wavelength. Hence standing waves become possible.
wave length = wave speed divided by its frequency
v=fλ where f is the frequency, and λ is the wavelength
5 meters
4m
A wavelength doesn't have energy. The wave does. The details depend on the type of wave. Assuming an electromagnetic wave, you have to multiply the frequency by Plank's constant. To find the frequency, divide the speed of the wave by the wavelength.
you find out a waves speed by taking the wavelength and divide it by it's wave period or how long it takes for the wave to complete a full wavelength. This is what my textbook said. Speed=Wavelength ×Frequency
Period = Wavelength / Velocity
