wave properties review
directions: answer the question about frequency.
a wave completes three wave cycles over a distances of 45 meters. what is the wavelength of the wave?
blank hz

Explanation:

Step1: Recall wavelength formula

Wavelength ($\lambda$) is the distance per cycle. If a wave has $n$ cycles over distance $d$, then $\lambda=\frac{d}{n}$.
Here, $d = 45$ meters, $n = 3$ cycles.

Step2: Calculate wavelength

Substitute values into the formula: $\lambda=\frac{45}{3}=15$ meters. Wait, but the unit given is Hz (Hertz, for frequency), but the question asks for wavelength (unit should be meters). However, maybe there's a mix - up, but following the calculation for wavelength:

Answer:

15 (Note: The unit in the box is mislabeled as Hz; wavelength should be in meters, but the numerical answer is 15.)
