How do you find the inverse frequency of a wave?

The inverse of frequency is the period, which is the distance between two consecutive crests. If you are given frequency (f), period = 1/f


What is the relationship between wavelength and period?

Wavelength = (wave speed) divided by (period)


The distance between two consecutive crests on a wave?

The distance between consecutive crests is called the "wavelength".


If the period of a wave decreases its frequency must?

Period and frequency are inverse to each other, as period increases frequency decreases. So, to answer this question as the period of the wave decreases its frequency must increase.


What is the inverse of period?

what is the inverse of a period


When wave with a frequency of 10 hertz moves at 360 ms what is the period of the wave?

If you mean a wave that has a frequency of 10 hz at 360 m/s, then the answer is 1/36 of a second. The period is the inverse of the wavelength and the wavelength is equal to the wave speed divided y the frequency. 360/10=36 and the inverse of 36 is 1/36.


If a frequency of a wave increases what will happen?

Increase decrease. The frequency MUST decrease.


When wavelength decreases does the frequency increase or decrease?

The wavelength is inverse to the frequency, meaning the frequency in this case will increase.


How measure the sun temperature?

Use a spectrometer to measure the wavelength of the light. There is a direct, but inverse correlation of the wavelength to the temperature.


The wave equation says that a waves speed is equal to its time its frequency?

The speed or velocity of a wave is equal to the wavelength times the frequency. The period (amount of time for one wavelength to occur) is equal to 1 over the frequency (the inverse of its frequency).


How the wavelength of waves traveling with the same speed would change if the waves increases?

The wavelength would decrease - in inverse proportion.


If the wave has a wavelength of 0.34m and frequency 0.75s what is the speed of the wave?

0.453 metres per second, that is if the provided frequency was given in period (0.75seconds) therefore the inverse is 1.33 hertz...
