A 0.50 m wave has a frequency of 686 Hz. What is the speed of the wave? 170 m/s , 340 m/s , 690 m/s , or 1370 m/s ? :/

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

here we have to apply this formula: \[\Large \lambda f = v\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok! what do we plug in?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

\[\Large \lambda f = v = 0.5 \times 686 = ...m/\sec \]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

343? so our solution is 340 m/s ?

OpenStudy (michele_laino):

yes! that's right!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yay! thank you:)

OpenStudy (michele_laino):
