what is the relation between frequency and wave length I seem to have forgotten the equation
2006-08-20 20:46:42 · 9 answers · asked by cp10bibo 1 in Science & Mathematics ➔ Physics
λ= c / f
λ = wavelength or electromagnetic wavelenght
c= is the speed of propogation of the wave,(Light Speed)
f = frequency of the wave in 1/s = Hz.
Wave length in meters= 300,000/ freq.in khz
Wave length in meters= 300 / freq.in mhz
Wave length in feet= 984/ freq.in mhz
Freq. in khz=300,000/ Wave length in meters
Freq. in mhz= 300 / Wave lenght in meters
Freq. in mhz= 984 / Wave lenght in feet
Speed of light in meters per second= 300,000,000 = Frequency in Hz (cycles per second) times the Wave lenght in meters.

It's simple.. Velocity = Wavelength x Frequency

f=1/L often "L" is Lambda a Greek symbol representing wavelength, the two term s are inversely proportional to one another. f represents frequency in Hz or cycles per second

Speed = Wavelength * Frequency

wave length =L
frequency = W(omega)
L*W=Speed
Light speed = 3e8
if u know the W u know the wave length.....and the rest of the combinaion

frequency=(plancksconstant * speed of light)/wavelength.

isn't it something like
velocity = wavelength (usually represented by the lambda symbol) * frequency
