If you divide the speed of light (in meters/second) by the frequency (in Hz), you get the wavelength (in meters).

A light is emitted from a laser.its frequency is 630THz.what is the wavelength and color?

You can get the wavelength by dividing the speed of light by the frequency. Don't forget that THz means 10 to the power 12 Hz.


If a wave has a wavelength of 10 mm and a frequency of 5.0 hertz what is the speed?

Wavelength= 10 mm. Frequency= 5.0 hertz. Speed= 50 mm/second (wavelength x frequency)


A wave with a frequency of 0.5 Hz and a speed of 10 has a wavelength of?

Wavelength = (speed) divided by (frequency) = 10/0.5 = 20


What frequency have the shortest wavelength?

For light they would be gamma rays, or waves with a frequency greater than 1 * 10^20 (10000000000000000000) Hz. And really, as a general rule, the higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength. If you want to calculate the frequency or wavelength you take the speed of light (~3.00*10^8 m/s) and divide it by either the frequency or wavelength, and your answer will be the wavelength (if you used frequency) or the frequency (if you used wavelength).


What is a mathematical relationship between frequency wavelength and wave speed?

wl= v/fwhere wl = wavelength (m)v = velocity (m/s)f = frequency (Hz)there forwhen wl = 1 mand v = 10 m/sf = v/wlf= 10/1f= 10 hz(For wavelength traditional character is lambda)


What is the wavelength of a wave with a speed of 30 meters per second and a frequency of 10 hertz?

Wavelength = speed/frequency = 30/10 = 3 meters


What is the frequency of an electromagnetic wave that has a wavelength of 300000 kilometers?

The formula related to frequency and wavelength is Wavelength = 300000000 / Frequency (f) Wavelength = 300000000 / 30000000000 Wavelength = 1/100 Wavelength = 0.01 meter OR Wavelength = 10 milimeter


If the frequency of a sound wave is multiplied by ten what happens to the wave length?

it gets divided by 10; frequency = speed/wavelength; wavelength = speed/frequency


What is the wavelength of an earthquake wave if it has a speed of 5km s and a frequency of 10 Hz?

Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) = (5,000) / (10) = 500 meters = 0.5 km.


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


What is the frequencey of a wave with the speed of 10 and wavelength 20?

Frequency = (speed)/(wavelength) = 10/20 = 1/2


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.
