Understanding the Relationship
The relationship between wave speed (v), frequency (f), and wavelength (λ) is:
* v = fλ
Solving for Wavelength
1. Rearrange the equation: λ = v / f
2. Plug in the values: λ = 30 m/s / 6.0 Hz
3. Calculate: λ = 5.0 meters
Answer: The wavelength of the wave is 5.0 meters.
