meters per second
To measure the speed of a wave, you multiply the frequency by the wavelength.
The speed of a wave is how far the wave travels in one unit of time.
No, wave speed and wave frequency are not the same thing. Wave speed refers to how fast a wave travels through a medium, while wave frequency is the number of oscillations or cycles of a wave that occur per unit of time.
The equation used to measure wave speed is: Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
Police use radar technology to measure the speed of a car by sending out a radio wave towards the vehicle. The radio wave bounces off the car and returns to the radar unit. The Doppler effect causes a shift in the frequency of the returning wave, allowing the radar unit to calculate the speed of the car based on this frequency shift.
The unit used to measure the energy of an electromagnetic wave is called a photon.
Speed of the wave.
wave speed
You get a speed. If the 'Hertz' is the frequency of a particular wave, and the 'meters' is the wavelength of the same wave, then their product is the speed of that wave.
waves are measured in Joules
