What is the wavelength? What is the amplitude?

After exercising, your heart beats about 2 times per second. What is the frequency? What is the period?

What is the velocity of a water wave if the frequency is 5 Hz and the wavelength is 12 m?

A wave’s period is 0.25 seconds. What’s its frequency? What’s its speed if the wavelength is 2 meters?

A pendulum completes one cycle in 4 seconds. What is the frequency? What is the period?

After exercising, your heart beats about 2 times per second. What is the frequency? What is the period?

A sound wave has a velocity of 343 m/s. Calculate its frequency if the wavelength is 175 m

WIBC broadcasts at 93.1 MHz. That’s 93,100,000 Hz. The speed of radio waves is 300,000,000 m/s. What is the wavelength of the WIBC broadcast?
