It depends on the speed of sound considered for the situation, as sound can travel at different speeds depending on the temperature of the air, its density, composition, etc.
For all types of waves (sound waves included), the wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave, divided by its frequency. So, if you consider the speed of sound to be 330 m/s, the wavelength in question would be equal to 330/50, or 6.6 meters. If you consider the speed to be 340 m/s, the wavelength would be 6.8 meters.
It just is. Sound behaves like a wave, and the pitch of the sound affects the wavelength. And wavelength is directly related to the frequency. A high pitched sound has a a shorter wavelength and a higher frequency than a low-pitched sound.
Increasing the wavelength by 50 percent will decrease the frequency of the wave by one-third. This is because frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional - as wavelength increases, frequency decreases, and vice versa.
Wavelength= 10 mm. Frequency= 5.0 hertz. Speed= 50 mm/second (wavelength x frequency)
The wavelength of a wave can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of wave / frequency. In this case, the wavelength would be 0.5 meters, as 50 m/s divided by 100 Hz equals 0.5 meters.
Convert the cm to meters, to have compatible units. Then use the fact that the frequency times the wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave. In this case, you can divide the speed by the wavelength, to get the frequency.

The wavelength of a wave is the wave speed divided by the frequency, so you have to know the speed of the wave then divide it by the frquency. You will probably want to change thr frequency to just hz if the speed is m/s, or leave it as khz if the speed is in km/s.
A Frequency of 50 Hertz has a Wavelength of 5.9958e+8 Centimeters 1.9671e+7 Feet 5.9958e+6 Meters
Frequency = speed/wavelengthPeriod = 1/frequency = wavelength/speed = 0.01/50 = 0.2 millisecond

Sure, if it is AC (alternating current), you can calculate a wavelength. For example, in copper the speed is roughly 2/3 the speed of light in a vacuum, that is, 200,000 km/sec.; electricity in our homes comes at a frequency of 50 or 60 cycles per second; so (assuming the frequency of 50 cycles), that would give you a wavelength of 200,000 km/sec / 50 Hertz = 4000 km.Sure, if it is AC (alternating current), you can calculate a wavelength.

The speed of a wave is equal to the product of wavelength x frequency. Just convert everything to standard units (wavelength to meters, frequency to hertz), multiply both, and you'll get the result, also in standard units (meters / second).
