Understanding the Relationship

The relationship between wavelength (λ), frequency (f), and velocity (v) of a wave is given by:

v = fλ

Solving for Wavelength

1. Rearrange the formula: λ = v / f

2. Plug in the values: λ = 50 m/s / 5 Hz

3. Calculate: λ = 10 meters

Answer: The wavelength of the wave is 10 meters.
