Distance travelled by a travelling wave ...

Distance travelled by a travelling wave having wavelength `lamda` and periodic time T, in one secons is ….

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Required distance = constant velocity `xx` time
`= v xx `
`= f lamda ( because v = f lamda)`
`= (lamda0/(T) (because f = (1)/(T))`
