Frequency of a Sound Wave

Introduction to Frequency of a Sound Wave

The frequency of a sound wave is calculated by dividing the velocity of sound by its wavelength. In this formula, f represents the frequency of the sound wave, v is the velocity of sound, and λ is the wavelength of the sound wave. The result is expressed in hertz (Hz).

Parameter usage:

• v= velocity of sound
• λ= wavelength of the sound wave

Output:

• f= frequency of the sound wave

Data validation

The velocity of sound should be a positive number and the wavelength should be a positive non-zero number.

Summary

This calculator takes into account the velocity and wavelength of a sound wave and outputs its frequency. It is helpful in understanding the characteristics of sound waves in different mediums.
