The speed of a wave is its wavelength (λ) x frequency (ƒ).
v = 땃 = 1.2m x 250Hz = 300m/s

What is the wavelength if the frequency of sound equals 880 Hz?
That would also depend on the speed. Note that sound can go at quite different speeds, depending on the medium and the temperature. Use the formula speed (of sound) = frequency x wavelength. Solving for wavelength: wavelength = speed / frequency. If the speed is in meters / second, and the frequency in Hertz, then the wavelength will be in meters.
If the frequency of the musical note is 26.6 Hz and the speed of sound is 345 meters per second what is the wavelenght of the musical note in meters?
Speed divided by frequency. 12.96 meters.
What is the speed of a sound wave that has a wavelenght of 102 meters and a frequency of 250hz?
speed = wavelength * frequency wavelength = 102 meters frequency = 250 Hz = 250 cycles/second 102 * 250 = 25500 meters/second
What is the speed of sound wave that has a wavelength of 1.2 meters and a frequency of 250?
300
What is the period of a sound wave whose wave length is 20.0 m?
You solve this as follows: 1) Decide on a number for the speed of sound. Note that the speed of sound in air is quite different to the speed of sound in water, for example. Convert this speed to meters/second, if it isn't already in meters/second. 2) Divide the speed by the wavelength, to get the frequency. 3) The period is simply the reciprocal of the frequency.
The speed of sound is approximately 340 meters per second If a sound wave has a wavelength of 0.68 meters the frequency will be approximately?
500 hertz
If you have a frequency of 670 what is it wavelength?
Depends on what the speed of the wave is. The wavelength is equal to the speed of the wave divided by its frequency. For light in a vaccum, for instance, the speed is c, or about 3.00 x 10e8 meters/second. If the frequency was in Hertz (cycles/second), then the wavelength would be 448,000 meters. So, this probably is a light frequency. If it were the sound at sea level, the speed is 340 meters/second, so the resulting wavelength would be 0.507 meters. The sound would be nearly an "E".
What is the period of a sound wave whose wavelength is 17.0 m?
Divide the speed of sound by the wavelength, to get the frequency. The period is the reciprocal of the frequency. The speed of sound in air is about 343 meters/second, but it depends on temperature. The speed of sound in other materials is quite different from the speed of sound in air.
What is the frequency of a sound wave moving in a room temperature if the wavelength of 0.686 meters?
The speed of sound varies with temperature. At commonly experienced temperatures, it's about 343 meters/sec. Frequency = speed/wavelength = 343/0.686 = 500 Hz
The speed of sound is approximately 340 ms If a sound wave has a wavelength of 0.68 meters the frequency will be approximately?
No, the speed of sound may be 340 meters per second.The frequency is speed of sound divided by wavelength.So your frequency f = 340 / 0.68 = 500 Hz.
The speed of sound in water is 1430 meters per second Find the wavelength of a sound with a frequency of 286 Hz traveling through the water?
5 meters
A sound wave produced by a lightning bolt has a frequency of 36 Hz and a wavelength of 12.0 m what is the speed of the sound wave?
Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (36) x (12) = 432 meters per second.Isn't this a pretty high speed for sound in air . . . ? ? ?
