Solution

1. Break Down the Problem

To find the wavelength of a wave, we can use the relationship between speed, frequency, and wavelength described by the formula: v=fλ v = f \cdot \lambda where:

  • vv is the speed of the wave,
  • ff is the frequency of the wave, and
  • λ\lambda is the wavelength.

2. Relevant Concepts

Given:

  • Frequency, f=200Hzf = 200 \, \text{Hz}
  • Speed of sound wave, v=100m/sv = 100 \, \text{m/s}

We need to find the wavelength λ\lambda.

3. Analysis and Detail

Rearranging the formula to solve for wavelength: λ=vf \lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Substituting the values into the equation: λ=100m/s200Hz \lambda = \frac{100 \, \text{m/s}}{200 \, \text{Hz}}

4. Verify and Summarize

Calculating the wavelength: λ=100200=0.5m \lambda = \frac{100}{200} = 0.5 \, \text{m}

Final Answer

The wavelength of the wave is 0.5meters0.5 \, \text{meters}.
