Answer:
Explanation:
6 waves in 12 seconds
The period of a wave is defined as the time taken by the wave to complete one oscillations.
Here, 6 waves are completed in 12 seconds
So, one wave is completed in 2 seconds
So, the period of the wave is 2 second.
frequency is defined as the number of waves completed in one second. It is the reciprocal of period of the wave.
frequency = 1 / 2 = 0.5 Hertz
Let the wavelength is λ.
f = 660 kHz = 660000 Hz
the relation for the wave speed and the wavelength and the frequency is given by
v = f λ
where v is the speed of wave = 3 x 10^8 m/s
So, 3 x 10^8 = 660000 x λ
λ = 454.55 m
