You are sitting on a beach watching the waves roll in. in 12 seconds, 6 waves roll by. what is the period of the waves (7)? what is their frequency (o? 17. an am radio station broadcasts at a frequency of 660 khz. (note that k means 1000). since radio waves move at the same speed as light waves, what is the wavelength of this radio wave?

Explanation:

6 waves in 12 seconds

The period of a wave is defined as the time taken by the wave to complete one oscillations.

Here, 6 waves are completed in 12 seconds

So, one wave is completed in 2 seconds

So, the period of the wave is 2 second.

frequency is defined as the number of waves completed in one second. It is the reciprocal of period of the wave.

frequency = 1 / 2 = 0.5 Hertz

Let the wavelength is λ.

f = 660  kHz = 660000 Hz

the relation for the wave speed and the wavelength and the frequency is given by

v = f λ

where v is the speed of wave = 3 x 10^8 m/s

So, 3 x 10^8 = 660000 x λ

λ = 454.55 m

i think it would be 5
