Question 1 • Physical Science

Which process would correctly calculate the frequency of a wave?

Answer
A
multiplying frequency by period
B
dividing wavelength by period
C
dividing speed by wavelength
D
dividing frequency by wavelength

Explanation

Wave speed, frequency, and wavelength are related by the equation speed = frequency × wavelength. Rearranging gives frequency = speed ÷ wavelength, so the correct process is dividing speed by wavelength. Choice A is correct.
