Wave speed = (wavelength) x (frequency)
"Depth" (?) is not involved.

How do you calculate speed when the frequency and wavelength are given?
speed=frequency x wavelenth xD
How wavelength and wave period can be used to calculate wave speed?
Just divide the wavelength by the wave period, and you've got the wave speed.
How do you find the wave speed with the wavelength and amplitude?
Not enough information. You can use the equation speed = frequency x wavelength, but in this case, you don't have enough data to calculate the speed.
How does wave speed differ from frequency?
Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given period of time. Frequency is the number of oscillations in a given period of time. The third leg of the triangle is wavelength--the distance between peaks of the wave. Given any two of these values for a wave, you can calculate the third.
Derive a formula for the speed of ocean waves in terms of Density acceleration of free fall depth and wavelength?

How do you calculate speed when the frequency and wavelength are given?

How do you calculate frequency when given a half wavelength?
Frequency (f)=Speed of the wave(v)/wavelength l
How do you calculate the wavelength?
Wavelength = (wave speed) divided by (frequency)
How do you calculate light wavelength to frequency?
To find (wavelength): Divide (speed) by (frequency). To find (frequency): Divide (speed) by (wavelength).
How do you calculate the wavelength of frequency?
Wavelength = (speed of the wave) divided by (frequency)
How do you calculate the speed of waves?
Speed = Wavelength X Frequency
How do you calculate the waves speed?
Speed = Wavelength X Frequency
What will be the speed when amplitude and frequency is given?
In order to calculate the speed of a wave, you need to know the frequency and wavelength. Amplitude has no effect on the speed, so knowing the amplitude doesn't help.
How do you calculate the celerity of a wave if you know the depth and period?
The depth won't help you here. The basic relation here is: speed = frequency x wavelength. If you know two of these pieces of information, you can solve for the third one.
How do you calculate frequency wavelength or wave speed?
you divide!
What is the frequency when wavelength is 566nm?
Frequency = Speed/Wavelength. Since the speed is not specified, a proper answer cannot be given.
How do you calculate the frequency of a wave?
Divided the wave's speed by its wavelength.
