x
wavelength
View source
If the frequency of a wave is 10 Hz and the wavelength is 2 m, what is the wave speed?
20
m/s
20 \text{ m/s}
20
m/s
View source
What is the relationship expressed in the equation: wave speed = frequency x wavelength?
It shows how wave speed depends on frequency and wavelength
View source
How do longitudinal waves differ from transverse waves in terms of particle movement?
In longitudinal waves, particles move parallel to the wave direction, while in transverse waves, they move perpendicular
