Best Answer

Frequency = speed/wavelength

Period = 1/frequency = wavelength/speed = (3,000,000)/(300,000,000) = 0.01 second

What are wavelength frequency time period and amplitude of a sound wave?

Sound waves - which humans and other animals hear through their ears - are actually caused by wave-like variations in pressure travelling through air and other physical media, for example water, wooden doors and floors, etc.Sound travels faster in a less dense medium than it can travel in a more dense medium. The exact speed at which a sound wave travels through a given medium depends on the pressure and temperature of the medium, and therefore on its density.Sound itself is not an electromagnetic (EM) wave but EM waves such as radio signals - and infra-red and visible light transmissions - can fairly easily be "modulated" to carry sound waves as "data". The signals and can then be transmitted through space, air or water.After such signals have been have been received and "demodulated" at radio, infra-red or visible light receivers, the sound can then be heard.Another answerConsidering radio waves, frequencies similar to audible sound are located in the VLF [very low frequency] Radio Band 4 [3 to 30kc/s], known as the myriametric subdivision.The propogation velocity of any radio wave though empty space is 186,282 miles per second, approximately 984 million feet per second. So the wavelength, measured in feet, of a given frequency is approx 984,000 divided by the frequency in kilocycles per second (kHz) or 984 divided by the frequency in megacycles per second (MHz).The propogation velocity of any radio wave through empty space is 300,000,000 meters per second (three hundred million meters per second) so the wavelength, measured in meters, of a given frequency is 300,000 divided by the frequency in kilocycles per second (kHz) OR 300 divided by the frequency in megacycles per second (MHz).Amplitude, which is the signal strength, does not enter into the calculation.

What would be the velocity of a deepwater wave with a wavelength of 50 meters and a period of 6.5 second?

If its wavelength is 50 meters with a period of 6.5 seconds it means it is traveling at 50 meters every 6.5 seconds or 50/6.5 = 7.7 meters/sec.


What is the speed of a wave 30 meters long with a period of 5 seconds?

Speed = (wavelength) times (frequency) = (wavelength) divided by (period) = 30/5 = 6 meters per second


What is the frequency of a wave if the wavelength is 10 meters and period is 5 seconds?

The frequency is 1/5 = 0.2 Hertz. The wavelength is irrelevant in this question.


What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 meters per second and a wavelength of 10 milimeters?

Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds

Celerity speed of a deep water wave is 16.6 meters per sec. with a wavelength of 166 meters.


What is the period of a wave traviling 5 ms it its wavelength is 20 m?

If a wave is traveling at 5 meters per second (assuming that is what the question meant) and its wavelength is 20 meters, consider standing beside the wave and watching it pass. As the wave is 20 meters long and it is moving at 5 meters per second, it will take 4 seconds for the full cycle of the wave to pass an observer. That means its frequency is one cycle per 4 seconds. And - surprise! - that's the period of the wave. The period of the wave is 4 seconds.


What are the SI units for speed of light?

Wavelength is in meters, the frequency is in hertz. period is in seconds and the wave speed is in meters per second.


What is the period of a wave traveling 5 ms if its wavelength is 20 m?

What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 miles per seconds and a wave length of 10 millimeters?

Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Period = 1 / (frequency) = (wavelength) / (speed) = (0.01 meter) / (50 mi/sec x 1609.344 meters/mi) = 0.1243 microsecond (rounded)


If a wave has a wavelength of 9 meters and a period of 0.006 what is the velocity of the wave?

The speed of the wave is equal to wavelength x frequency. You can calculate the frequency, in this case, as 1 / period.
