Do the following 3 problems on the back of the sheet that we did in class today titled, “Calculations with Waves Worksheet”.
- What is the frequency of the wave that has a wavelength of 30 m and a speed of 120 m/s?
- If a wave has a wavelength of 48 m and a frequency of 8 Hz, then what is its speed?
- What is the wavelength of a wave that has a frequency of 12 Hz and a speed of 60 m/s?
Could you put more examples on your blog of how to calculate waves, Thank you
Rukhaya, here is the website and the set of problems for you to practice!

1. A wave with a frequency of 14 Hz has a wavelength of 3 meters. At what speed will this wave travel?
2. The speed of a wave is 65 m/sec. If the wavelength of the wave is 0.8 meters, what is the frequency of the wave?
3. A wave has a frequency of 46 Hz and a wavelength of 1.7 meters. What is the speed of this wave?
4. A wave traveling at 230 m/sec has a wavelength of 2.1 meters. What is the frequency of this wave?
5. A wave with a frequency of 500 Hz is traveling at a speed of 200 m/s. What is the wavelength?
6. A wave has a frequency of 540 Hz and is traveling at 340 m/s. What is its wavelength?
7. A wave has a wavelength of 125 meters is moving at a speed of 20 m/s. What is it’s frequency?
8. A wave has a frequency of 900 Hz and a wavelength of 200 m. At what speed is this wave traveling?
9. A wave has a wavelength of 0.5 meters and a frequency of 120 Hz. What is the wave’s speed?
10. Radio waves travel at a speed of 300,000,000 m/s. WFNX broadcasts radio waves at a frequency of 101,700,000 Hertz. What is the wavelength of WFNX’s radio waves?
