If a wave has a wavelength of 13 meters and a period of 0.005, what's the velocity of the wave? a. 2,600 m/s b. 260 m/s c. 1,300 m/s d. 1,560 m/s

V = 2600ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength(λ) = 13meters

Period (T) = 0.005s

Period(T) is the time it takes for a full cycle of vibration to pass through. It's unit is in seconds (s)

The Velocity of waves is expressed as:

V = fλ

Where f = frequency(s⁻¹)

Frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit time

f = 1/T

Where T is the period

We can therefore express Velocity of waves as a function of period

V = λ/T

Inputing the parameters, we have:

V = 13m / 0.005s

V = 2600ms⁻¹
