Place a source thats vibrating at a certain frequency in a particular medium and the wave will automatically have a certain wavelength. Calculate the wave speed of microwaves from the labeled frequency and your measured distance. Khan Academy is a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
Calculate the frequency of the wave.
Consider an ocean wave with a wavelength of 3 meters and a frequency of 1 hertz. Wavelength x frequency 006312 245 x 10 9 155 x 10 8. How to calculate a wave speed. Apply this to waves.
