The following formula is used to calculate the speed or velocity of a wave. The Frequency is expressed in Hertz Hz. L wavelength the distance between wave crests m v wave velocity the speed that waves are moving in a direction ms f frequency the wave crests that go through a point in a certain time cycless or Hz.
F 1 T.
Wavelength can be calculated using the following formula. L Cf Where l Lambda Wavelength in meters. Speed Frequency Wavelength. Wavelength usually is expressed in units of meters.
