To choose: The correct option.
Answer to Problem 31R
Option A.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Wave speed is defined as the product of wavelength to the time.
Wave speed is the distance travelled by a point of wave in a certain time interval.
The formula for calculating speed is given by,
Where,
The wave speed is
The frequency is
The wavelength is
The other options are incorrect because the proved formula is option A.
Conclusion:
Thus, the correct option is A.
