Answer: The wavelength is 2.5 meters.

Explanation: The wavelenght of a wave is related to the velocity and the frequency by the next equation:

Wavelenght = Speed/Frequency

so here we have:

W = (350 m/s)/(140Hz)

Now we may do the change of unit Hz = 1/s and get:

W = (350m/s)/(140 1/s) = (350/140)m = 2.5m

The wavelength of a wave is 2.5 m.

What is wavelength?

This is the distance traveled by wave in a given period of time.

The relationship between wavelength, speed and frequency is given as;

v = fλ

where;

  • v is speed of the wave
  • f is frequency
  • λ is wavelength

λ = v/f

λ = 350/140

λ = 2.5 m

Thus, the wavelength of a wave is 2.5 m.
