Since v = ? f, the speed v of a wave depends on its frequency f. True/False

Question:

Since v = ? f, the speed v of a wave depends on its frequency f.

True/False

Solution:

The wave speed of the wave v is,

v= λƒ

Here, λ is the wavelength of the wave and ƒ is the frequency of the wave.

The speed of the wave is depends on both frequency and wavelength of the wave.

The frequency of the wave is inversely proportional to the wavelength of the wave. So, if the frequency is increase then the wavelength of the wave decreases and if the wavelength of the wave decreases then the frequency of the wave increases.

So, the speed of the wave is depends on the medium.

Ans: – False.
