An ocean wave has a wavelength of 10 m and a frequency of 4.0 Hz. What is the velocity of the
wave? Show the appropriate equation from your book and show your work with units.

Respuesta :

The velocity of the wave is 40 m/s

Explanation:

The relationship between the velocity of a wave and its frequency and wavelength is given by

[tex]v=f \lambda[/tex]

where

v is the velocity

f is the frequency

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

For the ocean wave in this problem, we have:

[tex]\lambda = 10 m[/tex] (wavelength)

f = 4.0 Hz (frequency)

Therefore, its velocity is

[tex]v=(4.0)(10)=40 m/s[/tex]
