The wavelength is the equal to the speed divided by the frequency.
Hence: λ = v/f

How is wave length related to frequency fro waves moving at a constant speed?
Wavelength x frequency = speed of the wave.
In the Doppler effect for sound if the source and receiver are at rest but the air is moving will there be any change in frequency or wavelength?
No change in frequency or wavelength.
What is the frequency of a wave moving at 24 ms with a wavelength of 3 m?
8Hz
What is the frequency of the wave moving at the rate of 40 cms. Its wavelength is 8 cm.?
Divide the speed by the wavelength.
2 wave have the same frequency the faster of the two waves will have what?
Wavelength x frequency = velocity, so if the frequency is the same for two waves moving at different velocities, the faster wave must have a longer wavelength.
How is the wavelength related to frequency for waves moving at a constant speed?
Whatever the wavelength and frequency happen to be, their product is always equal to the speed.
How is wave length related to frequency fro waves moving at a constant speed?
Wavelength x frequency = speed of the wave.
If a wave is moving at a constant speed and the wavelength is doubled what will happen to the frequency?
IF a wave moving at a constant speed were to have it's wavelength doubled (Wavelength x 2), then the frequency of the wave would be half of what it originally was (Frequency / 2).
How are wavelength and frequency related for a wave moving at a constant speed?
They are related by s=wf, wavelength w and frequency f. The product of the wavelenth andf frquency are a constant. This is an hyperbolic relationship between w and f, when w increases f decrease and vice versa.
In the Doppler effect for sound if the source and receiver are at rest but the air is moving will there be any change in frequency or wavelength?
No change in frequency or wavelength.
Examples of the equation velocity equals frequency wavelength?
Any wave. Of you have a wave (light, water etc.), it will have a frequency and a wavelength. Multiply these and you get the speed at which the wave is moving.
How fast is a wave moving if its wavelength is 10meters and its frequency is 110Hz?
The speed of a wave is equal to its wavelength times its frequency. Since you are using SI units, the answer will be in meters/second.
What is the frequency of a wave moving at 24 ms with a wavelength of 3 m?
8Hz
What is the frequency of the wave moving at the rate of 40 cms. Its wavelength is 8 cm.?
Divide the speed by the wavelength.
Does 220-Hertz or 440-Hertz move faster?
220 hertz is faster, because the higher the frequency, the lower the wavelength. The wavelength directly correlates to the speed so therefore the object moving at 220 hertz is significantly faster. Not quite. The question is not about moving objects but wave speeds. The formula is velocity = frequency x wavelength, but for any given wave motion through a given medium, its velocity stays constant. Therefore the wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency alone. So a 220Hz signal travels at the same speed as the 440Hz signal, in the same medium.
What is the frequency of a wave moving at 24 m s with a wavelength of 3 m?
frequency [Hz] = velocity[m/s] / wavelength [m] frequency [Hz] = 24 [m/s] / 3 [m] frequency = 8 [Hz]
Moving along the electromagnetic spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays frequency increases so wavelength?
The wavelength decreases.The speed of light is the speed of all electromagnetic radiation (such as radio waves, light waves, gamma rays, etc.) in vacuum.The speed of light (c) is a physical constant with the exact value of 299,792,458 m/s.speed of light = frequency x wavelengthso when frequency increases, wavelength decreases .
