What is the wavelength of an earthquake wave if it has a speed of 10 km/s and a frequency of 3 Hz? What is the answer and units?

Answer: The wavelength is 3.33 km, the unit is km.

Explanation:

1) dа ta:

a) λ = ?

b) v = 10 km/s

c) f = 3 Hz = 3 s⁻¹

2) Formula:

wave equation: v = f * λ

3) Solution:

a) Solve for λ

λ = v / f

λ = (10 km/s) / 3 s⁻¹

λ = 3.33 km

The wavelength is 3.33 km, the unit is km.
