What determine the color of a light wave?
Its wavelength (or frequency).
What is the correlation between wavelengths and frequency?
Wavelength = wave speed/frequency Frequency = wave speed/wavelength (Wavelength) x (Frequency) = Wave speed
How does frequencey relate to wavelength?
Frequency = (wave speed) divided by (wavelength)Wavelength = (wave speed) divided by (frequency)Wave speed = (frequency) multiplied by (wavelength)
What is the quantitative relationship between frequency and wavelength?
speed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelengthspeed (of the wave) = frequency x wavelength
You can determine the velocity of a wave when given the frequency and the?
You can use the equation v=fw. that is velocity (in meters per second) equals the frequency (in hertz) times the wavelength (in meters). so you can find the velocity of a wave with the frequency and the wavelength.

How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if the frequency of the wave increases?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How the wavelength of a sound wave changes if frequency of the wave increase?
frequency of wave is inversely proportional to wavelength
How is frequency related to wavelength for a given wave?
(frequency) multiplied by (wavelength) = (speed of the wave)
Which characteristic of a wave is used to determine where it goes on the electromagnetic spectrum?
The frequency. Or alternatively, the wavelength.
To determine the speed of a wave what formula would you use?
speed = wavelength x frequency
What is the formula to find the wavelength of a wave in a vacuum?
The wave speed equation proposes that: v = fw; where "v" is the wave's velocity, "f" is the wave's frequency, and "w" (more notably used as lambda) is the wave's wavelength. Manipulating the equation and solving for wavelength yields: w = v/f. Thus, if one knows both the velocity and frequency of a wave, he/she can divide velocity by frequency to determine the corresponding wave's wavelength.
