What is the formula in getting the maximum speed?

The formula to calculate maximum speed is: maximum speed = square root of (2 * acceleration * distance). This formula takes into account the acceleration and distance traveled to determine the maximum velocity attainable.


What is the relationship between amplitude and waves?

In a sinusoidal wave amplitude is the height of the crest and frequency is the no. of oscillations per second.Hence,amplitude remains same for any change in frequency.-No relation.


What is the formula to find the speed?

There are a few different formulas, depending on what measurements you know. For mechanical waves . . . the mechanical characteristics of the medium. For electromagnetic waves . . . the electrical characteristics of the medium. For all waves . . . the product of (wavelength) multiplied by (frequency).


How do you find amplitude in waves?

The amplitude of a wave is the measure of its maximum displacement from the equilibrium position. To find the amplitude, you measure the distance between the equilibrium position and the peak (or trough) of the wave. This value represents the maximum amount by which the wave oscillates from its resting point.


How do you find frequency of diffracted waves?

To find the frequency of diffracted waves, one can use the formula: f_d = (v_sound / λ_d) where: f_d is the frequency of the diffracted wave, v_sound is the speed of sound in the medium, and λ_d is the wavelength of the diffracted wave.


What is the formula used to find the speed?

speed = distance / time


How do you find velocity when only the frequency is given?

The question is incomplete. Frequency of what? If it refers to electromagnetic waves, you won't need even frequency to determine velocity (in a vacuum), because it will always be c (the speed of light). You can compute the speed of other kinds of waves if you know the frequency and wavelength, but not from frequency alone. The formula is frequency x wavelength = velocity If the waves are electromagnetic, and you have only frequency, you can compute the wavelength using the same formula.


How do to find amplitude in waves?

To find the amplitude of a wave, measure the distance from the equilibrium position (middle point of the wave) to the peak (highest point) or trough (lowest point) of the wave. This distance represents the maximum displacement of the wave from its equilibrium position.


How do you find the wave speed with the wavelength and amplitude?

Not enough information. You can use the equation speed = frequency x wavelength, but in this case, you don't have enough data to calculate the speed.


Find the speed of a wave with a frequency of 6 wavess and a wavelength of 8m?

Is that 6 waves per second? Wavelength of 8m? speed = 8 meters*6 per second =1.333 meters per second


What is the frequency of green light waves with a wavelength of 520mm?

To calculate the frequency of green light waves with a wavelength of 520 mm, you can use the formula: frequency = speed of light / wavelength. The speed of light is approximately 3.00 x 10^8 m/s. First, convert the wavelength from mm to meters by dividing by 1000. Then, plug the values into the formula to find the frequency in Hz.


How do you get wavelength with amplitude and frequency?

Amplitude is not relevant for this. Use the following formula: c = lambda times f; or speed (of the wave) = wavelength times frequency. If you know any two of these, you can solve for the third. The way the question is phrased, you don't have enough information - you only know the frequency. However, if you know that it is a light (or other EM) wave in a vacuum, you can use a speed of 300,000,000 m/s; if you know that it is sound in air, 331 m/s is a reasonable assumption.
