How is wave and velocity related?
Wave velocity is directly proportional to the frequency and wavelength of the wave. In general, wave velocity = frequency x wavelength. This means that as the frequency or wavelength of a wave increases, the velocity of the wave also increases.
When a light wave bends toward the normal what does that tell you about the velocity?
It decreases.
What represent the velocity of the light wave?
That means how fast it travels. ==================== c
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of a light wave projected by the laser?
Colors are determined by the wavelengths but all wavelengths travel at the same speed. So no, colors do not affect the velocity of light.
When was velocity of a wave derived?
In order to find the velocity of a wave - you must know a few variables. The first variable that must be known is the wave-length, literally the length of said wave - and the second is the frequency often notated in Hz. Simply multiplying the frequency by the wavelength will create an answer.
Can phase velocity exceed the speed of light?
Yes, phase velocity can exceed the speed of light in certain mediums. This is known as superluminal phase velocity. However, this does not violate the principle of causality or the speed of light in vacuum as it is the group velocity, rather than the phase velocity, that carries the information in a wave.
Does the color of a laser affect the velocity of the light wave projected bt the laser?
No.
How is wave velocity determined?
Wave velocity is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling and the properties of the wave itself, such as frequency and wavelength. It can be calculated as the product of wavelength and frequency or by dividing the distance the wave travels by the time it takes to travel that distance. Additionally, the type of wave, such as sound or light, can also affect the velocity at which it travels through a medium.
When a light wave is reflected from a mirror there is a change in its?
When a light wave is reflected from a mirror, its direction changes. The angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. The frequency and wavelength of the light wave remain the same after reflection.
What is the transverse wave velocity equation?
The equation for the velocity of a transverse wave is v f , where v is the velocity of the wave, f is the frequency of the wave, and is the wavelength of the wave.
Does color of a laser affects the velocity of the light wave projected by a laser?
No. Light travels at the same speed no matter what.
What is wave velocity and particle velocity?
The speed the wave is traveling through space
