When a 440 Hz sound is sent through steel, a wavelength of 11.6 meters is measured. What is the velocity of the sound through steel
"Meters" is not frequency. It's wavelength. If you know the wavelength in meters, divide 300 by it, and the result is the frequency in MHz. If you know the frequency in MHz, divide 300 by it, and the result is the wavelength in meters.
The wavelength is about 67 centimeters, regardless of how far it travels.
a+
Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) =(299,792,458) / (1,240,000) = 241.768 meters
5,104 meters per second 5,104 m/s
60Hz has a wavelength of 5000 meters.
5 meters
AnswerSpeed of a wave = Wavelength x frequencyv = 0.5 x 500v = 250 m/sAnswerIf it is an electromagnetic wave, then the speed is that of light - 'c (in vacuum)'.
Wavelength = speed/frequency299,792,458 meters per second/94,400,000 per second = 3.176 meters = 10ft 5in(For the speed, I used the speed of light/radio in vacuum, although you actuallyreceive your FM program through air. The speed of radio is very slightly less inair, and that implies a very slightly larger wavelength ... less than a small fractionof a hill of beans.)
The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its frequency. (If you want to have the speed in meters/second, convert the wavelength to meters first.)
12.5 terahertz. If your wavelength is in meters.
