  • Wave Velocity Calculator: Calculate Speed from Wavelength & Frequency
    Here's how to calculate the velocity of a wave:

    The Relationship

    The velocity (v) of a wave is related to its wavelength (λ) and frequency (f) by the following equation:

    v = λf

    Calculation

    1. Given:

    * Wavelength (λ) = 0.03 m

    * Frequency (f) = 120 Hz

    2. Substitute into the equation:

    v = (0.03 m) * (120 Hz)

    3. Calculate:

    v = 3.6 m/s

    Answer

    The velocity of the wave is 3.6 meters per second (m/s).
