Properties (cont.)
Speed
•How far the wave travels in
a unit of time, or distance
divided by time
•The speed, wavelength, and
frequency of a wave are
related to each other by
mathematical formulas.
•Unit for speed is meters per
second, or m/s
Speed = Wavelength x Frequency
or
Frequency = Speed / Wavelength
or
Wavelength = Speed/ Frequency S

Properties of Waves
A wave on a lake has a wavelength of 0.5 m and a frequency of 2 Hz
(2 Hz = 2 per second, or 2/s).
To find the speed of the wave, use this formula:
Speed = Wavelength x Frequency
Speed = 0.5 m x 2 Hz
= 0.5 m x 2/s
= 1 m/s
