Waves and Speed PuzzleOnline version

Explore waves and their speed through a quick puzzle.

by Dominic Montanye
1

A wave has a wavelength of 2 m and a frequency of 5 Hz. What is its speed?

Hints

Compute: 2 m × 5 Hz = 10 m/s.

In waves, speed equals wavelength times frequency.

Think about how far something travels in a given time.

2

I measure how fast a disturbance travels through a medium in waves.

Hints

Formula: v = f × λ

In wave physics, it's the product of frequency and wavelength.

It's the rate at which the wave crests move.

3

A push and a pull join the scene; when they add up, motion is seen.

Hints

If the total equals zero, the object's motion does not change.

Think of it as the total effect of all pushes and pulls.

Add all forces acting on the object while paying attention to directions.

4

I am the rate at which something covers a path, calculated by dividing distance by time.

Hints

Formula: speed = distance ÷ time.

Requires both distance and time values.

Measured in meters per second or kilometers per hour.

5

A broad family of disturbances that carry energy through space or matter. Their names span mechanical and electromagnetic worlds.

Hints

Subcategories include transverse, longitudinal, surface waves, and the various EM waves like radio, light, and X-rays.

Some need a medium to travel, others do not.

Includes both mechanical and electromagnetic categories.
