Time Period given Velocity Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Time Period of Progressive Wave = Wavelength/Velocity of Wave
Tw = λ/Vw
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Time Period of Progressive Wave - (Measured in Second) - Time period of progressive wave is the time taken by a wave to complete one oscillation.
Wavelength - (Measured in Meter) - Wavelength is the distance covered by the wave in one oscillation.
Velocity of Wave - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Velocity of Wave is equal to the product of its wavelength and frequency (number of vibrations per second) and is independent of its intensity.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Wavelength: 0.4 Meter --> 0.4 Meter No Conversion Required
Velocity of Wave: 60 Meter per Second --> 60 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
Tw = λ/Vw --> 0.4/60
Evaluating ... ...
Tw = 0.00666666666666667
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.00666666666666667 Second --> No Conversion Required
FINAL ANSWER
0.00666666666666667 0.006667 Second <-- Time Period of Progressive Wave
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

Time Period given Velocity Formula

Time Period of Progressive Wave = Wavelength/Velocity of Wave
Tw = λ/Vw

What is time period ?

A wave period is the time in seconds between two wave peaks and is inversely proportional to frequency. If you want to know the period of a wave, start by counting the number of times the wave reaches its peak in a certain period of time. Use an oscilloscope to see the shape of the wave.

How to Calculate Time Period given Velocity?

Time Period given Velocity calculator uses Time Period of Progressive Wave = Wavelength/Velocity of Wave to calculate the Time Period of Progressive Wave, Time Period given Velocity is the time taken by the apparatus to complete one oscillation. It is denoted by 'T'. Time Period of Progressive Wave is denoted by Tw symbol.

How to calculate Time Period given Velocity using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Time Period given Velocity, enter Wavelength (λ) & Velocity of Wave (Vw) and hit the calculate button.
