If only there were an equation that related the speed of EM waves, wavelength, and frequency...
c=(wavelength)(frequency)
Make sure and keep your units straight.
Wavelength= 10 mm. Frequency= 5.0 hertz. Speed= 50 mm/second (wavelength x frequency)
Speed (of a wave) = frequency x wavelengthTherefore, you have to: * Convert the wavelength to meters. * Divide the speed of light - which is 300 million meters/second - by this wavelength. The answer will be in Hz.
Frequency = speed / wavelength = 3 x 108/0.001 = 300 GHz . (rounded)Most folks would call that a "millimeter wave" or a "darnedshort microwave", not light. It's certainly not visible.
Frequency of electromagnetic radiation = (speed of light) / (wavelength) Speed of light in vacuum = 300,000,000 meters/sec (rounded) Frequency = (300,000,000 meters/sec) / (5 x 10-6 cm) = (3 x 108 m/s) / (5 x 10-8 m) = 0.6 x 1016 = 6 x 1015 Hz.
Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds
Wavelength= 10 mm. Frequency= 5.0 hertz. Speed= 50 mm/second (wavelength x frequency)
The speed of a wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and its frequency. (If you want to have the speed in meters/second, convert the wavelength to meters first.)
60 mm/s
Speed (of a wave) = frequency x wavelengthTherefore, you have to: * Convert the wavelength to meters. * Divide the speed of light - which is 300 million meters/second - by this wavelength. The answer will be in Hz.
Extra-low frequency radio waves can have wavelengths as long as 3.5 miles or more. The shortest wavelength is around 1 mm.
Frequency = speed / wavelength = 3 x 108/0.001 = 300 GHz . (rounded)Most folks would call that a "millimeter wave" or a "darnedshort microwave", not light. It's certainly not visible.
The wavelength is greater than 300E6/300E9 = 1 mm and the frequency is less than about 300 Gigacycles.
Electromagnetic wavelength = speed/frequency = 3 x 108/6 x 1010 = 5 mm
Frequency of electromagnetic radiation = (speed of light) / (wavelength) Speed of light in vacuum = 300,000,000 meters/sec (rounded) Frequency = (300,000,000 meters/sec) / (5 x 10-6 cm) = (3 x 108 m/s) / (5 x 10-8 m) = 0.6 x 1016 = 6 x 1015 Hz.
Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds
1/2.51 =.4 573/.4=1432.5(that is ur answer)
Apply c = v l v -frequency = 5 Hz l - wavelength = 10 mm or 10^-3 m So c = 5*10^-3 m/s
