New cards

Formula for frequency (f)

f = v/λ

2
New cards

Formula for wavelength (λ)

λ = v/f

3
New cards

Formula for velocity (v)

v = f x λ

4
New cards

Example problem for finding velocity (v)

v = f x λ

Frequency (f) = 20 Hz

Wavelength (λ) = 2 m

20 Hz x 2 m = 40 m/s

5
New cards

Example problem for finding wavelength (λ)

λ = v/f

Velocity (v) = 500 m/s

Frequency (f) = 50 Hz

500 m/s / 50 Hz = 10 m

6
New cards

Example problem for finding frequency (f)

f = v/λ

Velocity (v) = 300 m/s

Wavelength (λ) = 10 m

300 m/s / 10 m = 30 Hz
