1). Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)

2). Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency)

3). Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength)

Use #3:

Wavelength = (35 cm/s) / (25 Hz) = 1.4 cm

Describe how the frequency of a wave changes as the wavelength changes?

it is directly proportional to frequency so if frequency increases wavelength also increases


How would you describe the wavelength of a wave with low speed but high frequency?

The wavelength of a wave with low speed but high frequency would be short.


Describe how wavelength frequency and energy are related?

Wavelength and frequency are inversely proportional; as wavelength decreases, frequency increases. Energy is directly proportional to frequency; higher frequency corresponds to higher energy. In summary, shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies and higher energy levels.


If a wave has a low frequency how do you describe the wave length?

The frequency of a wave is not directly related to the wave length. A low frequency wave or a high frequency wave may be either long-wave or short-wave.


Can you describe the parts of a sound wave?

What three quantities are used to describe a wave?

The three quantities used to describe a wave are wavelength (distance between two consecutive points in a wave that are in phase), amplitude (maximum displacement of a wave from its equilibrium position), and frequency (number of complete waves passing a point per unit time).


What is the velocity of a wave with a frequency of 760 hertz and a wavelength of 0.45M?

The wave speed is (frequency) x (wavelength) = 342 meters per second.We can't describe its velocity, because we don't have any informtion aboutits direction, beamwidth, etc.


How describe the vibration of the colored ribbon?

The vibration of the colored ribbon can be described by its amplitude, frequency, and wavelength. The amplitude represents the maximum displacement of the ribbon from its resting position, the frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time, and the wavelength is the distance between two consecutive points on the ribbon that are in phase.


What is short wavelenght?

Generally the term "short wavelength" is used to describe light but it can be used for any wave. It means the distance between one wave front and another is only short. Given that, you might get the idea that "short wavelength" is a relative term. In radio, the term short wavelength is almost obsolete. If has been replaced by terms such as HF (High frequency) VHF (very high frequency) UHF (ultra high frequency) and so forth. The higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength. After radio waves, electromagnetic waves go to infrared, visible light, xrays then gamma rays as the wavelength gets shorter.


What is the frequency of a periodic wave if its wavelength is 2m and velocity is 12?

Frequency = (speed)/(wavelength) = 12/2 = 6 per second = 6 Hz.Note:The question doesn't give enough information to describe the velocity. "12" is nota velocity, but it can be a speed, and we've assumed that it is. Fortunately, 'speed'is all we need to answer the question.


What property of a wave describes its length?

The property of a wave that describes its length is the wavelength. This is the distance between two consecutive crests or troughs of a wave. Wavelength is usually denoted by the Greek letter lambda (λ).


What two particles do waves have that particles do not have?

Waves have wavelength and frequency, which are characteristics that particles do not possess. These properties describe the spacial and temporal characteristics of a wave, defining its behavior and interactions.
