Question

If a wave has amplitude of 0.2 meters, a wavelength of 0.5 meters, and a frequency of 32 Hz, at what speed is it moving?


6.4 m/s


16 m/s


32.5 m/s

Answer 1

Speed of a wave is the product of wavelength and frequency.
\[\huge Speed ( m/s)= \lambda(meters) \times \nu(/s)\]
Can you find now?

Answer 2

@BazBendell did you understand? Can you do it?

Answer 3

I have no idea what that mean't.

Answer 4

\[ \lambda= wavelength= 0.5m\]

\[\nu = frequency=32 hz\]
\[Speed=\lambda \times \nu\]
\[Speed=0.5 \times 32= 16 m/s\]
