Which equation should be used to calculate the speed of a wave?
That would depend what information is available. One common equation is: speed = wavelength x frequency. However, in a practical situation, it may be easier to actually measure the wavelength and (for example) the frequency, and then make deductions about the wavelength, than the other way round.
What is the right way to convert wavelength to frequency?
The right way to convert wavelength to frequency is by using a wavelength to frequency calculator. Websites like Photonics and Chemistry offer a wavelength to frequency calculator, which can be used for free.
How wavelength frequency and amplitude affect the charasterics?
The wavelength and frequency affect how the way is perceived. In sound it would affect the pitch that you hear, in the visible light spectrum it would affect what color you see. The amplitude would be how easy it is to perceive, it is the intensity (magnitude) of the wave.
The loudness of a sound is related to what?
Loudness is the quality of a sound that is the primary psychological correlate of physical strength or amplitude. Loudness is a subjective felt impression and is in some way related to the objective measure of sound pressure.
What happens to the frequency if you increase your wavelength and keep wave speed the same?
There is no way to change the wave speed, propagation speed other than changing the density of the medium. If you increase the frequency the wavelength gets shorter, which is true with both light and sound, so if the wavelength is increased the frequency will be less. Since the speed slows in a denser material we can make lenses and prisms.
Do wavelength measure from the top of one wave to the top of another wave?
Yes. To be precise, the wavelength is the length of one precise cycle, and one way to measure that is from top to top.
Is there other way to measure sound?
No. That's the only one.

How does the wavelength of a G-note sound wave compare to the wavelength of an A-note sound wave?
Assuming that both notes are in the range of C4 (middle C) and C5, G has a frequency of 392Hz, and A has a frequency of 440Hz. Assuming that both sound waves are travelling through air, through which sound travels at 340ms-1, then the wavelengths for G and A can be found to be 0.87m and 0.77m, respectively.An easier way to assess a change in wavelength would be to look at the equation v=fλ, where v is the speed of sound, f is the frequency of the note, and λ is the wavelength of the note. A higher pitch note means a higher frequency, and since the speed of sound is constant, then if the pitch is increased the wavelength must compensate by decreasing.Simply put, higher pitch means smaller wavelength.

What is the best way to determine a galaxy's redshift?
Take a spectrum of the galaxy, and measure the difference in wavelength of spectral lines from the wavelengths of those same lines as measured in the laboratory
What is the function of Audio Analyzers?
Audio Analyzers are instruments that test and measure instrument audio performance. They are used as a way to measure the quality and sound of a specific instrument.

Can the wavelength and frequency of a color on the visible emr spectrum be duplicated to make a sound on a band of sound opposed to a band of emr?
No, you can not turn a light wave into a sound wave. While some people have a gift of seeing colors with sound (similar to perfect pitch), there is no way right now to hear light or colors in a laboratory setting.
