The frequency of wave A is 250 hertz and the wavelength is 30 centimeters. The frequency of wave B is 260 hertz and the wavelength is 25 centimeters.

Which is the faster wave?

Use the equation v=fλ Wave A 250×30×10^-2=75 m/s Wave B 260×25×10^-2=65 m/s
Therefore Wave A is faster

**Wave A **will be **faster **than the **wave B **because V_B"> V A ​ > V B ​
What is the frequency of the wave?
The **frequency **of the wave is **defined **as the **cycle **completed by the **wave **per second .
Now it is **given **in the question :
**Frequency **of wave **A **= 250 hertz
The **wavelength **of wave A = 30 cm
**Frequency **of wave **B **= 260 hertz
The **wavelength **of wave B = 25 cm
Now for **finding **which wave is **faster **we will calculate the **velocity **of the wave .
For **Wave **A
V A ​ = f × λ = 250 × 30 = 7500 s c m ​
For **wave **B
V B ​ = f × λ = 260 × 25 = 6500 s c m ​
We can see that the **velocity **of wave **A **is **higher **than the **velocity **of wave B .
Thus **wave **A will be **faster **than the wave **B **because V_B"> V A ​ > V B ​

Wave A is faster than Wave B, with speeds of 75 m/s and 65 m/s respectively. The calculation used the relationship between frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves. Thus, Wave A is the faster wave.
