A wave with a frequency of 3 Hz propagates in a medium at a speed of 6 m / s. The wavelength is …

These tasks: ν (frequency of oscillations of a given wave) = 3 Hz; V (the speed with which the wave propagates in the medium) = 6 m / s.

To calculate the length of a given wave, we apply the formula: λ = V / ν.

Let’s make a calculation: λ = 6/3 = 2 m.

Dimensional check: m = (m / s) / Hz = (m / s) / (1 / s) = m * s / s = m (correct).

Answer: the length of a given wave is 2 meters.
