A person on the sea shore observes 48 waves reach the shore in one minute. If the wavelength of the wave is 10 m, find the velocity of the wave.

Solution

Given data

Wave frequency = f = 48 waves per minute = 48/60 waves/second

Wavelength of the wave = λ = 10 m

Required                 Velocity of the wave = v =?

Formula                   v = fλ

Put the values in the above formula
