What you'll learn

Each question helps you build key knowledge and skills.

  • 1Wave speed can be found using v = f x λ (frequency x wavelength).
  • 2The period of a wave is the time for one full wave, found using T = 1/f.
  • 3Echoes are reflected sound waves, and can be used to calculate distances.
  • 4The law of reflection states the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection.
