What is the relationship among wavelegnth and wave velocity?
Velocity/wavelength=frequency
What can be determined from the frequency of a light wave?
the energy of the wave brah
What can be determined from frequency of a light wave?
the energy of the wave brah
How are wavelength and frequency related to each other?
Wavelength is the distance a wave travels during a single, complete cycle. It can be measured by the distance between two crests of the same wave, and is reported in meters. Frequency pertains to how many of these cycles a wave completes in one second. The unit of frequency is the Hertz (Hz), or cycles per second.The wavelegnth and frequency of any wave are inversely related to each other. That is, if the wavelegnth gets bigger, the frequency gets smaller, and vice versa.For electromagnetic radiation, including light, wavelength and frequency are related to each other by the speed of light: c=wavelength*frequency where c=3.00 x 10^8 m/s2 (approximately).It should be noted that this is the speed of light in vacuum, so if your wave is propagating through a medium such as water or a particular solid, this must be taken into account.Questions you will usually encounter in intro physics classes will involve waves traveling through air or vacuum, in which the approximate velocity given above holds for both. Also, if you are given an angular frequency (commonly denoted by a lowercase omega) in radians, you must convert it to Hz as follows: frequency=omega/(2*pi) in order for the above relationship to hold.
What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).
What is the relationship among wavelegnth and wave velocity?
Velocity/wavelength=frequency
What is an example of frequency?
Frequency can be found in sound, light, and line current. An example of frequency is, the frequency wave of light will determine what color the light is.

What is the difference between unltraviolet light and infrared light?
wavelength and frequency. ultravoilet light has a short wave length and therefore a high frequency, while infrared light has a longer wave length and lower frequency
What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).
A wave with a frequency that is lower than red?
Red waves have the lowest frequency of all light waves; there is no wave with a lower frequency.
What properties of a light wave determine its color?
Frequency or wave length.The relation between frequency f and wave length lof a light waveis given by; f = c/l, where c is light's speed.
How does frequency relate to light?
Light, being a vibrating electro-magnetic wave, has a frequency of vibration.
Which wave of light had the greatest frequency?
Violet.
