Given: Frequency of vibration in a wire is 500 Hz and the distance covered by the wave in one second is 20 cm.
To find: Velocity of the wave
Explanation: The distance covered by the wave in one second is called the velocity.
Wavelength= 20 cm = 0.2 m
Frequency= 500 Hz
Therefore,
time period= 1/ frequency
= 1 / 500
= 0.002 second
The formula relating velocity, time period and wavelength is:
Velocity= Wavelength / Time period
= 0.2/0.002
= 100 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the wave is 100 m/s.
