Explanation:

Wavelength ( distance ) = 0.55 m

Frequency = 6 Hz

Wave speed = Wavelength × Frequency

Wave speed = 0.55 × 6

= 3.3 mHz

I hope it helps you. If you have any doubts , then don't hesitate to ask

Given:

The wavelength of the wave is 0.55 m and the frequency is 6.0 Hz.

To Find:

Find the wave speed?

Explanation:

  • Wavelength is the distance from one crest to another crest, or from one trough to another, of a wave.
  • Frequency is the rate per second of a vibration constituting a wave,  in a material.
  • Wave speed is the distance traveled by a wave in a given amount of time.
  • Wave speed is equal to the product of frequency and wavelength.

        \textrm{Wave speed}=wavelength \times frequency

        By the given data in the formula.

        \textrm{Wave speed}=0.55 \times 6

        \textrm{Wave speed}=3.3 mHz

So, the speed of the wave is 3.3mhz.
