Answer: Our wavelength will be 2333.3 m.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Wave speed = 7 km/ s
Frequency = 3 Hz
We need to find the wavelength of an earthquake wave:
As we know that :
[tex]Frequency=\dfrac{Wave\ speed}{wavelength}[/tex]
First we convert km/sec to m/sec.
So, 7 km/sec= 7000 m/sec
so, our wavelength becomes
[tex]\dfrac{Wave\ speed}{frequency}\\\\\\=\dfrac{7000\ m/sec}{3\ Hz}\\\\\\=2333.33\ m[/tex]
So, our wavelength will be 2333.3 m.
