    Answer: Wavespeed (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ (V = F λ)

    Explanation:

    The wavespeed is the distance covered by a wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V. It is directly proportional to the wavelength and frequency

    i.e Velocity (V) = Frequency F x wavelength λ

    V = F λ

    For instance:

    Assume wavelength (λ)= 20 m

    Frequency = 10 Hz.

    To get the wavespeed, use the formula

    V = F λ

    V = 20 metres x 10 hertz

    V = 200 metres per second

    Thus, the wave travels at a speed of 200 metres per second
