Wave length times frequency gives the speed of light. If you want to call the speed of light a wave-blank you may -- however I don't see what purpose it would serve.

How are frequency speed and wavelength related?

they are related by the equation velocity=frequency*wavelength


The wave equation says that a waves speed is equal to its time its frequency?

The speed or velocity of a wave is equal to the wavelength times the frequency. The period (amount of time for one wavelength to occur) is equal to 1 over the frequency (the inverse of its frequency).


What is the equation used to find the speed of a wave?

Here is an equation that relates three quantities of any wave: speed = frequency x wavelength. However, I am pretty sure that usually, you'll have to somehow measure the speed of the wave, instead of calculating it. In other words, you would measure the speed and the frequency, and then use the formula to calculate the wavelength; or measure the speed and wavelength, and use the formula to calculate the frequency.


The wave equation says that a waves speed is equal to its wavelength times its what?

frequency for apex learners not speed :)


What is the frequency of a UV photon at 350nm?

the equation f= c/wavelength means that the frequency is equal to the speed of light divided by the wavelength in Meters. e.g. f=2.9998x108 / 350x10-9 ans: 8.57x1014 Hz.


The wave equation says that a wave's is equal to its wavelength times its frequency?

A wave equation is an equation that repeats y-values infinately creating a wave like pattern, a good example is the sine wave: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sine_wave


How the wavelength traveling with the same speed would change if the frequency of the waves increase?

The speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.


Is frequency directly inversely equal or have no bearing on wavelength?

Frequency and wavelength are inversely proportional. Their product is always the speed of the wave;it doesn't change, regardless of the frequency/wavelength.


How would the wavelength of waves traveling with the same speed change if the frequency of the waves increase?

The speed of a wave is equal to the wavelength divided by the frequency (speed = wavelength/frequency). So if the frequency of the wave increases, the wavelength will decrease.
