Wavelength*Frequency = Velocity of the wave. or Wavelength/Period = Velocity of the wave.
velocity = frequency multiply wavelength Rearrange the equation to find the frequency
velocity = frequency / wavelength, I believe.
Frequency.
v=lambda*f v is velocity, lambda is wavelengt, f is frequency Units are m/s, meters, Hertz Or v=w/k v is velocity, w(supposed to be greek letter omega) is angular frequency, and k is the wave number Or If you want to get complicated the velocity of a wave can be seen in the wave equation. This requires partial derivatives, look into it for calculus based physics
Period = Wavelength / Velocity
The velocity of the wave
Wavelength = velocity / frequency
The speed the wave is traveling through space
The velocity of a point that moves with a wave at constant phase. Also known as celerity; phase speed; wave celerity; wave speed., wave velocity.
You can use the equation v=fw. that is velocity (in meters per second) equals the frequency (in hertz) times the wavelength (in meters). so you can find the velocity of a wave with the frequency and the wavelength.
speed = wavelength x frequency therefore, you would solve this by multiplying 18 and 4 to find the speed. There isn't enough information to find the velocity. In fact, it's doubtful whether it's even appropriate to talk about the 'velocity' of a wave. 'Velocity' is not simply a word you use instead of 'speed' in order to sound smart.
The wave speed equation proposes that: v = fw; where "v" is the wave's velocity, "f" is the wave's frequency, and "w" (more notably used as lambda) is the wave's wavelength. Manipulating the equation and solving for wavelength yields: w = v/f. Thus, if one knows both the velocity and frequency of a wave, he/she can divide velocity by frequency to determine the corresponding wave's wavelength.
No.
How quickly the wave travels
In order to find the velocity of a wave - you must know a few variables. The first variable that must be known is the wave-length, literally the length of said wave - and the second is the frequency often notated in Hz. Simply multiplying the frequency by the wavelength will create an answer.
Wavelength*Frequency = Velocity of the wave. or Wavelength/Period = Velocity of the wave.
