A wave has a frequency of and a wavelength of . What is its speed (in m/s)?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 300
**
- Step 1: Apply the fundamental wave relationship .
- Step 2: Insert and : .
- Step 3: Multiplying the values gives .
Answer
300.
Why not the others: '100/3' divides frequency by wavelength () instead of multiplying; '103' adds frequency and wavelength () instead of multiplying; '600' multiplies by an extra factor of .
