A wave travels at a speed of 34 cm/s. It’s wavelength is 18 cm. What is the period of the wave?

0. 75 s

1. 2 s

0. 66 s

0. 53 s

Regions of compression and rarefaction help define _______.

Electromagnetic waves

Longitudinal waves, but not transverse waves

Transverse waves, but not longitudinal waves

All mechanical waves

Mechanical waves are, by definition, a disturbance that moves through a medium. Mechanical waves can be broadly divided into three categories: longitudinal (displacements of the medium are parallel to the wave's direction of travel), transverse (displacements of the medium are perpendicular to the wave's direction of travel), and both

How is the velocity of a longitudinal wave determined?

The equation for the longitudinal wave's speed is v=E, where is the medium's density.

How is the maximum speed of a wave determined?

Wavelength x wave frequency equals speed. The length in meters and the frequency in hertz (Hz), or the number of waves per second, are used in this equation. As a result, the SI unit for speed, meters per second, is used to describe wave speed.
