Determine the frequency and the speed of these waves. The wavelength is 8.6 meters and the period is 6.2 seconds. Now find speed using the v = f. λ equation.
Wavelength is also measured in meters (m) - it is a length after all. The frequency, f, of a wave is the number of waves passing a point in a certain time. We normally use a time of one second, so this gives frequency the unit hertz (Hz), since one hertz is equal to one wave per second.
