Question

A wave has a frequency of 450 Hz and a wavelength of 0.52 m. What is the

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 230 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

$v=f \lambda$

where

f is the frequency

$\lambda$ is the wavelength

For the wave in the problem,

f = 450 Hz (frequency)

$\lambda=0.52 m$ (wavelength)

Substituting into the equation, we find the speed:

$v=(450)(0.52)=234 m/s \sim 230 m/s$
