A wave has a wavelength of 10 mm and a frequency of 5 hertz. What is its speed? 50 mm/s 50 hertz/s 2 mm/s 0.50 mm/s How does reflection differ from refraction and diffraction? Reflection is the only process in which the wave does not continue moving forward. Reflection is the only process that involves a change in the wave. Reflection affects all types of mechanical waves, but refraction and diffraction do not. Reflection is the only process that changes the direction.

\[v=\lambda * \nu \] use this..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't get what that's supposed to be.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lambda is wavelength nu is frequency v is speed..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you're saying it's 50 mm/s?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yep..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That's what I thought. So what's the answer for the second question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it may be first one .. but i am not sure ..
