Velocity can be calculated using the following rule:
velocity = lambda * frequency where:
velocity is given = 6 km/sec
lambda is the wavelength that we want to calculate
frequency is given = 13 Hz
Substitute with the givens in the above equation to get the wavelength (lambda) as follows:
6 = 13*lambda
wavelength = 6/13 = 0.461538 Km = 461.538 meters
Newton also understood that white light can be separated into its components because each ray of color is deviated by the glass of the prism by a different amount. He realized, for example, that red light is consistently less deviated than violet light.
Speed = (distance covered) / (time to cover the distance)
Speed = (1,000 meters / 8.6 minutes) x (1 minute / 60 seconds) = 1.94 m/s
