A wave oscillates $4.0$ times a second and has a wavelength of $3.0 \mathrm{~m}$. What are the (a) frequency, (b) period, and (c) speed of this wave?
You produce a wave by oscillating one end of a rope up and down $2.0$ times a second. (a) What is the frequency of this wave? (b) What is the period of this wave? (c) If the wave travels with a speed of $5.0 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$, what is the wavelength?
Consider the wave $y=(5 \mathrm{~mm}) \sin \left[1 \mathrm{~cm}^{-1} x-\left(60 \mathrm{~s}^{-1}\right) t\right]$. Find $(a)$ the amplitude, (b) the angular wave number, (c) the wavelength, (d) the frequency, (e) the time period and (f) the wave velocity.
