The speed of a sound wave travelling through water is 1500 m/s.
The wavelength of this wave is 0.60 m.
Calculate the frequency of this wave.
Use the equation:
wave speed=frequency×wavelength \text{wave speed} = \text{frequency} \times \text{wavelength} wave speed=frequency×wavelength64 exam-style questions on Edexcel GCSE Physics 4.1 Wave properties, covering 4.1.1 Waves transfer energy and information, 4.1.2 Frequency, wavelength, amplitude, period and wavefronts, 4.1.3 Longitudinal and transverse waves, 4.1.4 The wave speed equations, 4.1.5 Measuring wave velocity, and 4.1.6 Calculating depth or distance from waves.
