The frequency of a wave is 1) A) measured in cycles per second. B) measured in hertz (Hz). C) the number of peaks passing by any point each second. D) equal to the speed of the wave divided by the wavelength of the wave. E) all of the above

Respuesta :

Answer: E) all of the above

Explanation:

Frequency is the number of  vibrations in one second. It is also defined as the number of crests that pass a point in a given time.

The frequency and the wavelength has an inverse relationship.

Frequency is measured in cycles per second or Hertz(Hz).

The relationship between wavelength and frequency of the wave follows the equation:

[tex]\nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}[/tex]

where,

[tex]\nu[/tex] = frequency of the wave

c = speed of light  

[tex]\lambda [/tex] = wavelength of the wave

Thus all the given statements are true.
