How do you calculate light wavelength to frequency?
To find (wavelength): Divide (speed) by (frequency). To find (frequency): Divide (speed) by (wavelength).
How do you calculate the amplitude given the frequency and the wavelength?
Amplitude doesn't depend on frequency or wavelength, so even if you know them, you have no way to calculate amplitude.
How do you calculate frequency when given a half wavelength?
Frequency (f)=Speed of the wave(v)/wavelength l
What frequency have the shortest wavelength?
For light they would be gamma rays, or waves with a frequency greater than 1 * 10^20 (10000000000000000000) Hz. And really, as a general rule, the higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength. If you want to calculate the frequency or wavelength you take the speed of light (~3.00*10^8 m/s) and divide it by either the frequency or wavelength, and your answer will be the wavelength (if you used frequency) or the frequency (if you used wavelength).
How do you calculate the speed of a wave?
you find out a waves speed by taking the wavelength and divide it by it's wave period or how long it takes for the wave to complete a full wavelength. This is what my textbook said. Speed=Wavelength ×Frequency

How do you calculate the wavelength?
Wavelength = (wave speed) divided by (frequency)
How do you calculate the amplitude given the frequency and the wavelength?
Amplitude doesn't depend on frequency or wavelength, so even if you know them, you have no way to calculate amplitude.
How do you calculate cumulative frequency and relative frequency?
c=frequency x wavelength
How do you calculate frequency when given a half wavelength?
Frequency (f)=Speed of the wave(v)/wavelength l
How do you calculate frequency wavelength or wave speed?
you divide!
How do you calculate speed when the frequency and wavelength are given?
speed=frequency x wavelenth xD
How do you calculate the speed of waves?
Speed = Wavelength X Frequency
How do you calculate the frequency of a wave?
Divided the wave's speed by its wavelength.
How do you calculate the waves speed?
Speed = Wavelength X Frequency
