Is wave amplitude related to wave velocity?
No.
How is frequency related to velocity?
the velocity of a wave is given by frequency*its wavelength
What can be determine from the frequency and wavelength of a wave?
The velocity of the wave
What is wave velocity and particle velocity?
The speed the wave is traveling through space
What is phase velocity?
The velocity of a point that moves with a wave at constant phase. Also known as celerity; phase speed; wave celerity; wave speed., wave velocity.
Is wave amplitude related to wave velocity?
No.
How is frequency related to velocity?
the velocity of a wave is given by frequency*its wavelength
How are wave length and wave frequency are related?
velocity = frequency x wavelength
How is the frequency of a wave related toits wave length?
Frequency of the a wave equals its velocity divided by its wavelength.
How are wavelength frequency and energy are related?
Energy of light photons is related to frequency as Energy = h(Planck's constant)* frequency Frequency = velocity of wave / wavelength So energy = h * velocity of the wave / wavelength
What can be determine from the frequency and wavelength of a wave?
The velocity of the wave
What is wave velocity and particle velocity?
The speed the wave is traveling through space
Why does a wave with short wavelenth have a high frequency?
Wave velocity in general = frequency x wavelength As the velocity of the wave remains constant then frequency and wavelength are inversely related So as the wavelength becomes shorter then frequency becomes larger or higher
What is phase velocity?
The velocity of a point that moves with a wave at constant phase. Also known as celerity; phase speed; wave celerity; wave speed., wave velocity.
What is velocity of a wave?
How quickly the wave travels
Which equatian shows how frequency is related to velocity and wavelength apex?
C the distance between the top or bottom of a wave
How are wave velocity frequency period and wavelength related?
Wave frequency can be calculated by dividing the speed of the wave (if we're talking about electromagnetic waves in vacuum, that would be the speed of light, c) by wavelength.
