Wavelength of Wave using Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Wavelength = Velocity of Wave*Time Period of Progressive Wave
λ = V_w*T_w
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength is the distance covered by the wave in one oscillation.
Velocity of Wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of Wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity.
Time Period of Progressive Wave - (Measured in Second) - Time period of progressive wave is the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Velocity of Wave: 60 Meter per Second --> 60 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Time Period of Progressive Wave: 2.6 Second --> 2.6 Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

λ = V_w*T_w --> 60*2.6

Evaluating ... ...

λ = 156

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

156 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

156 Meter <-- Wavelength

Effective Wavelength when Source Moves Away from Observer

Go Wavelength = (Velocity of Sound+Velocity of Source)/Wave Frequency

Effective Wavelength when Source Moves towards Observer

Go Wavelength = (Velocity of Sound-Velocity of Source)/Wave Frequency

Change in Wavelength given Angular Frequency

Go Wavelength = 2*pi*Velocity of Source*Angular Frequency

Change in Wavelength due to Movement of Source

Go Wavelength = Velocity of Source*Time Period of Progressive Wave

Wavelength of Wave using Velocity

Go Wavelength = Velocity of Wave*Time Period of Progressive Wave

Change in Wavelength given Frequency

Go Wavelength = Velocity of Source/Wave Frequency

Wavelength given Frequency

Go Wavelength = Velocity of Wave/Wave Frequency

Wavelength of Wave using Velocity Formula

Wavelength = Velocity of Wave*Time Period of Progressive Wave
