To be dimensionally consistent, velocity [L/T], frequency [1/T], and wavelength [L] must be related as follows. A) velocity = frequency² × wavelength B) velocity = frequency × wavelength C) velocity = frequency/wavelength D) velocity = frequency/wavelength²

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Velocity is the product of frequency and wavelength for a wave, as seen in the equation v = fλ. This choice is the only option that correctly relates all three variables and is dimensionally consistent.
