If a wave has amplitude of 2 meters, a wavelength of 2 meters, and a frequency of 10 Hz, and a period of 1 second, then at what speed is the wave moving?

Respuesta :

Answer:

20 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of a wave is given by:

[tex]v=\lambda f[/tex]

where

[tex]\lambda[/tex] is the wavelength

f is the frequency

v is the speed

For the wave in this problem,

f = 10 Hz is the frequency

[tex]\lambda=2 m[/tex] is the wavelength

So the speed is

[tex]v=(10 Hz)(2 m)=20 m/s[/tex]
