Wavelength and frequency relationship

Answer 1

Wavelength lambda and frequency f are connected by the speed c of the medium. c can be air = 343 m/s at 20 degrees celsius or water at 0 dgrees = 1450 m/s. c can be light waves or electromagnetic waves = 299 792 458 m/s. The formulas are: c = lambda x f f = c / lambda lambda =c / f

Answer 2

Wavelength is a measure of the length of a wave. Measured in metres.

Frequency is a measure of how often something happens, measured in occurrences per second.

Energy is the fundamental constituent of the universe, measured in kgm2s-2 or Newton-metres or Joules

Answer 3

Wavelength and frequency are inversely related: as the wavelength decreases, the frequency increases, and vice versa. This is because the speed of a wave remains constant in a given medium, so a shorter wavelength wave must have a higher frequency to maintain the same speed. Mathematically, the relationship between wavelength ((\lambda)) and frequency ((f)) can be expressed as: (v = \lambda \times f), where (v) is the speed of the wave.

Answer 4

For the same kind of wave moving through the same kind of environment,

(wavelength) multiplied by (frequency) is always the same number . . . it's

the speed of the wave.
