A wave has a frequency of 500 Hz and a wavelength of 2 cm. What will be its velocity?

Answer: 10 m/s
Explanation
  • Wave velocity vv is calculated using the formula v=fλv = f lambda, where ff is frequency and λlambda is wavelength.
  • Substituting values: v=500×0.02=10m/sv = 500 times 0.02 = 10 , text{m/s}.
