The same unit meant for velocity ie m/s.

c=fλ
(speed of wave) = (frequency of wave)x(wavelength)
(meter/second) = (cycles/second)x(meters)
So the standard unit of measurement of the speed of a wave is (m/s) or ms^(-1) or meters per second

∙ 10y agoA wave speed is a speed. Any unit of speed is appropriate to describe a
wave speed. (any unit of length)/(any unit of time) is a unit of speed.
A few common and useful ones include . . .
- miles per hour
- feet per second
- meters per second
- furlongs per fortnight.

What does the SI unit for speed, m/s, stand for?
The International System of Units (SI) has two type of units, base units and derived units. Speed is a derived unit. Its unit is Meter/sec. Its a scalar quantity.
What is the speed over a period of time?
Average speed = distance covered / time taken > SI units: metres per second (m/s)
How far does a primary wave travel 10 min?
You need to multiply the speed of the wave by the time. You may also need to convert the units, to make them compatible. For instance, if the speed of the wave is expressed in meters per second, you would need to convert the minutes to seconds.
The speed at which the wave crests move is the?
... wave's speed of propagation.
What does si units stand for?
SI is an abbreviation of the French "le Système International d'unités"which when translated in to English means "The International System of Units".
What are the SI units for speed of light?
Wavelength is in meters, the frequency is in hertz. period is in seconds and the wave speed is in meters per second.
A wave has a frequency of 5 Hz and a wave speed of 18 ms. What is its wavelength?
Just divide the speed by the frequency. Since SI units are used, the wavelength will be in meters.
How fast is a wave moving if its wavelength is 10meters and its frequency is 110Hz?
The speed of a wave is equal to its wavelength times its frequency. Since you are using SI units, the answer will be in meters/second.
SI units for time length speed and velocity?
SI units: time:second length: meter speed:meter/second velocity:meter/second.
Amplitude is the speed of the wave?
No. Aplitude is the height of the wave. Frequency and wavelength can be used to calculate the speed of the wave by multiplying them together (if the units are appropriate).
What units are made to measure speed of wave?
Meters and secound
What are the SI units for length speed and velocity?
Distance: Meters (or metres) Speed & velocity (meters per second). velocity also needs a direction but that isn't defined by SI units.
What does the SI unit for speed, m/s, stand for?
The International System of Units (SI) has two type of units, base units and derived units. Speed is a derived unit. Its unit is Meter/sec. Its a scalar quantity.
What is the formula for speed and what is an example of speed in SI units?
One formula for speed is:Speed = (distance covered) divided by (time to cover the distance).The SI unit of speed is meter/second.
How do you find the wavelengths in meters of radiation what frequencies?
Wavelength x frequency = speed of the wave, so wavelength = speed / frequency. In SI units, wavelength (in meters) = speed (in meters/second) / frequency (in Hertz). If you are talking about electromagnetic waves in avacuum, use 300,000,000 m/s for the speed.
What is the SI unit of velocity?
Velocity is comprised of a speed part and a direction part. (any SI unit of length)/(any SI unit of time) is a unit of speed. The simplest one, in SI base units, would be meters/second . Direction is most often stated as an angle.
What is the unit for measuring foece?
In SI units, that would be the Newton.In SI units, that would be the Newton.In SI units, that would be the Newton.In SI units, that would be the Newton.
