A water wave rises and falls twice every four seconds What is the period of the wave What is its frequency?
Period = (4 seconds) / (2 waves) = 2 seconds per wave Frequency = (2 waves) / (4 seconds) = 0.5 Hz.
If a radio wave has a period of 1 us what is the waves period in seconds?
If a radio wave has a period of one then the period wave or two would be 2. This is math.
Which are the four properties that all waves have?
The main properties of waves are defined below. * Amplitude: the height of the wave, measured in meters. * Wavelength: the distance between adjacent crests, measured in meters. * Period: the time it takes for one complete wave to pass a given point, measured in seconds. * Frequency: the number of complete waves that pass a point in one second, measured in inverse seconds, or Hertz (Hz). * Speed: the horizontal speed of a point on a wave as it propagates, measured in meters / second.
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 meters per second and a wavelength of 10 milimeters?
Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength the wave with the has the greatest wave speed.?
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength, the wave with the __________ has the greatest wave speed.

If a radio wave has a period of one then the period wave or two would be 2. This is math.
An ocean wave has a wavelength of 10 meters these waves pass by a stationary boat every 2.0 seconds the speed of the waves is?

How are wave velocity frequency period and wavelength related?
Wave frequency can be calculated by dividing the speed of the wave (if we're talking about electromagnetic waves in vacuum, that would be the speed of light, c) by wavelength.
An ocean wave has a wavelength of 10 meters These waves pass by a stationary boat every 2 seconds The speed of the waves is?
The speed of a wave = (wavelength) times (frequency) = (10) x (1/2) = 5 meters per second.
Properties of Waves?
The main characteristics of waves are: 1. Amplitude or height of the wave. 2. Wavelength, or the distance between crests. 3. Period or the length of time for a wave to pass a point. 4. Frequency or the number of complete waves passing a point. 5. Speed or the horizontal speed of the wave as it grows.
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 meters per second and a wavelength of 10 milimeters?
Period = Wavelength/Speed = 10mm/50,000 mm/s = 1/5000 s or 0.0002 seconds
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength the wave with the has the greatest wave speed.?
If two transverse waves have the same wavelength, the wave with the __________ has the greatest wave speed.
What is the period of a wave if the wave has a frequency of 78.6Hz?
Period = 1/78.6 seconds = 0.01272 seconds
How does wave speed relate to wavelength and period?
Wave speed = (wavelength)/(period)
What is the period of a wave with a wave speed of 50 miles per seconds and a wave length of 10 millimeters?
Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength) Period = 1 / (frequency) = (wavelength) / (speed) = (0.01 meter) / (50 mi/sec x 1609.344 meters/mi) = 0.1243 microsecond (rounded)
