Do different electromagnetic waves have different frequencies?
Yes. The shorter the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave, the higher its frequency is. Don't confuse frequency with velocity! All electromagnetic radiation travels at the same rate, C (3*10^8) m/s.
How does the wavelength of a G-note sound wave compare to the wavelength of an A-note sound wave?
Assuming that both notes are in the range of C4 (middle C) and C5, G has a frequency of 392Hz, and A has a frequency of 440Hz. Assuming that both sound waves are travelling through air, through which sound travels at 340ms-1, then the wavelengths for G and A can be found to be 0.87m and 0.77m, respectively.An easier way to assess a change in wavelength would be to look at the equation v=fλ, where v is the speed of sound, f is the frequency of the note, and λ is the wavelength of the note. A higher pitch note means a higher frequency, and since the speed of sound is constant, then if the pitch is increased the wavelength must compensate by decreasing.Simply put, higher pitch means smaller wavelength.
How long in meter is a typical radio wave which has a frequency of 560 kilohertz?
Oh, dude, you're asking about radio waves now? That's like, totally rad. So, to answer your question, a radio wave with a frequency of 560 kilohertz has a wavelength of about 536 meters. So, like, if you ever need to measure a radio wave's length while jamming out to some tunes, now you know!
The pitch of a sound is determined by its wavelength and what?
only wavelengthActually, since ultimately the pitch we hear depends on the frequency, and the frequency is equal to the speed of sound divided by the wavelength, the pitch depends on both the wavelength and the speed of sound. The speed of sound in air depends on the temperature of the air. An approximate formula for calculating the speed of sound (credit Wikipedia) is:cair = 20.0457 x sqrt( T ) m/swhere T is the kelvin temperature.
What travels faster radio waves or ultraviolet waves?
neither... they both are electromagnetic waves and therefore travel at the same speed... but ultraviolet waves have a higher frequency and also have more energy than radio waves
The speed of an electromagnetic wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its?
frequency. The speed of an electromagnetic wave is constant and is determined by the medium it travels through.
What is the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave that travels 3 x 10 and has a frequency of 4 x 10?
wavelength=velocity/frequency (v/f). wavelength=(3x10/4x10)=30/40=.75 meters
Do different electromagnetic waves have different frequencies?
Yes. The shorter the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave, the higher its frequency is. Don't confuse frequency with velocity! All electromagnetic radiation travels at the same rate, C (3*10^8) m/s.
If a wave travels at a constant speed the greater its wavelength the lower its what?
If a wave travels at a constant speed, the greater its wavelength, the lower its frequency. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional in a wave, according to the formula: speed = frequency x wavelength.
What is the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave that travels at 3 x 108 and has a frequency of 60 MHz?
The wavelength of an electromagnetic wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of light / frequency. Plugging in the values, we have: wavelength = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / (60 x 10^6 Hz) = 5 meters. Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is 5 meters.
What is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 300000 kilometers?
The frequency of an electromagnetic wave is calculated using the equation: frequency = speed of light / wavelength. Given the speed of light is approximately 300,000 km/s, you can calculate the frequency by dividing the speed of light by the given wavelength of 300,000 kilometers. The resulting frequency will be in hertz (Hz).
If a wave travels at a constent speed the greater its wavelength the lower its?
frequency. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional in a wave - as wavelength increases, frequency decreases.
What equations tell us how fast a wave travels?
The speed of a wave can be determined by the equation: speed = frequency x wavelength. This equation relates the speed of a wave to its frequency and wavelength. Additionally, the wave equation, c = λf, where c is the speed of light, λ is the wavelength, and f is the frequency, can be used to determine the speed of electromagnetic waves in a vacuum.
What is the wavelength of an electromagnetic wave that travels at 3 x 10 to power of 8 ms and has a frequency of 60 Hz?
Using the formula speed = frequency x wavelength, we can calculate the wavelength. Wavelength = speed / frequency = (3 x 10^8 m/s) / 60 Hz = 5 x 10^6 meters.
How can you find the speed that a wave travels?
Multiply its frequency by its wavelength.
Calculate the wavelength of an x ray with a frequency of 2.01018 Hz?
Electromagnetic radiation, which includes light and x-rays, travels at 299,792,458 metres per second (c - a universal constant). Speed, frequency and wavelength are related by the equation speed = frequency times wavelength. The only problem with this question is that a frequency of 2.01018 Hz is not in the x-ray range of frequencies. X-rays are found in the frequency range of 30 petaHertz to 30 exaHertz. To put it another way, electromagnetic radiation with a frequency of 2.01018 Hz has a wavelength of 149,137 kilometers (92,669 miles), and that's no X-ray.
A wave travels at a speed of 4.0 ms and has a frequency of 3.5 Hz what is the wavelength?
v=frequency x wavelength > wavelength=v/f, 4.0/3.5=1.142m
