Why the wave length does not affect the wave speed?

Because it only resembles the wavelength, the speed is how fast the wave travels. two waves of the same size can travel at the same speed Wave speed is affected by a combination of wavelength and frequency, not just one alone.


How fast does 500 Hz wave travel through wavelength 0.5m?

AnswerSpeed of a wave = Wavelength x frequencyv = 0.5 x 500v = 250 m/sAnswerIf it is an electromagnetic wave, then the speed is that of light - 'c (in vacuum)'.


A wave with a frequency of 14 hz has a wavelength of 3 meters At what speed will this wave travel?

The speed of a wave is the product of its frequency and its wavelength.


How do frequency wavelength and amplitude measure waves?

Amplitude defines how powerful waves are. Frequency and wavelength are measures of how often the wave fluctuates or far the wave is from crest to crest , These are related and can be calculated from each other if you know how fast the waves travel.


What equations tell us how fast a wave travels?

Speed of light/wavelength = wave frequency


How far in terms of wave length does a wave travel in one period?

A wave period is the time for one complete cycle; therefore, a period is the same as one wavelength


How fast is a wave moving if its wavelength is 10meters and its frequency is 110Hz?

The speed of a wave is equal to its wavelength times its frequency. Since you are using SI units, the answer will be in meters/second.


What is the speed of the wave that has a frequency of 5.76 Hz and a wavelength of 8.42 m?

Fast.


It takes 5 seconds for a wave with a wavelength of 0.4 m to travel past you What is the frequency of the wave?

0.2 HZ


How would you find a period of a wave if the wave frequency is 500Hz?

Period = 1/frequency = 1/500 = 0.002 second = 2 milliseconds


How does the wavelength of a sound wave affects the diffraction of the sound wave through an open window?

The wavelength of a sound wave affects the diffraction of a sound wave through an open window because the wavelength can determine how fast the diffraction is moving; therfore, causing the sound to be either lower or higher.I think :)


A given wave has a wavelength of 1.4 m and a frequency of 2.0 Hz. How fast is the wave moving?

2.8 m/s
