When calculating the speed of sound do you multiply or divide the distance by the frequency? If you mean the formula for the speed of sound c then the wavelength lamda is multiplied by the frequency f. c = lambda x f f = c / lambda lambda = c / f

What are the two factors you need to determine the wave speed?
wave frequencys tell us the number of waves there are on that diagram.
Do you multiply or divide to change T to oz?
multiply
How do you find the distance given only the initial velocity traveled time and final velocity?
You can only know the distance for sure if acceleration or deceleration is constant. Add the start and end velocities and divide by two and then multiply by the time to get your distance.
What is the frequency in hertz and the energy in joules of an x-ray photon with a wavelength of 2.32 Å?
For the frequency, first convert the wavelength to meters (divide the number of Angstroms by 1010), then use the formula: wavelength x frequency = speed. Using the speed of light in this case. Solving for frequency: frequency = speed / wavelength. To get the photon's energy, multiply the frequency times Planck's constant, which is 6.63 x 10-34 (joules times seconds).
How do you change yard to feet?
Divide the feet by three, as there are three feet in one yard.
If the frequency vs wavelength of neutral hydrogen radio emission is 21cm vs 1428MHz where can I find such emissions for other elements all I seem to find is measured in nanometers for some reason?
1 nanometer is the same as 0.0000001 centimeter. The emissions for the other elements that you're finding are in the range of visible light, compared to the 1428 MHz line of hydrogen that's in the low microwave. Their wavelengths are much much much shorter, and their frequencies are much much much higher. To get the frequency of any wavelength, divide 300,000,000 by the wavelength in meters, or divide 30,000,000,000 by the wavelength in centimeters, or divide 300,000,000,000 by the wavelength in millimeters, or divide 300,000,000,000,000,000 by the wavelength in nanometers. The answer is the frequency in Hz. Divide it by 1,000 to get KHz, or divide it by 1,000,000 to get MHz, or divide it by 1,000,000,000 to get GHz. For the wavelength of any frequency, divide 300,000,000 by the frequency in Hz, or divide 300,000 by the frequency in KHz, or divide 300 by the frequency in MHz, or divide 0.3 by the frequency in GHz. The answer is in meters. Multiply it by 100 to get centimeters, or multiply it by 1,000 to get millimeters, or multiply it by 1,000,000,000 to get nanometers.

How do you find the energy of a photon?
You need to know the photon's frequency or wavelength. If you know the wavelength, divide the speed of light by the photon's wavelength to find the frequency. Once you have the photon's frequency, multiply that by Planck's Konstant. The product is the photon's energy.
What does it mean to multiply and divide fractions?

If relation between frequency and distance is inversely praportional then why frequency cant be 0 to increase the distance?
Frequency has nothing to do with distance, the only reason frequency is sometimes associated with distance, is the length of one full RF cycle in the air, this is calculated with the following formula: wave length in meters = 300/frequency in MHz, that is say the frequency is 30 MHz (a frequency allocated to radio armatures) 300/30 = 10 meters that is then called the 10 meter band. This will then be the length of a balanced long wire antenna for that frequency or a 1/2 wave dipole will be 5 meters long. In the old days before FM, the radio bands was announced in meter bands where say 750 kHz was the 300/.750 = 400 meters. So if frequency = 0 then there is no signal and you can't divide by zero if one try to divide by zero on any calculator you will get an error message "cannot divide by zero".
How do you calculate light wavelength to frequency?
To find (wavelength): Divide (speed) by (frequency). To find (frequency): Divide (speed) by (wavelength).
What do i do Multiply or divide first?
First comes multiply then comes divide.
Calculate the speed of a dog running through a field if he is covering 23.7 meters in 54 seconds?
Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.Divide the distance by the time. The result will be in meters per second. If you want to convert to kilometers per hour, multiply the meters per second by 3.6.
