The area A is that of a circle, which written in terms of its diameter is:
Putting all together:
Which for our values is:
Answer:
Explanation:
If we have a periodic wave we need to satisfy the following basic relationship:
From the last formula we see that the velocity is proportional fo the frequency.
For this case we have the following info given by the problem:
We know that the frequency is the reciprocal of the period so we have this formula:
And if we replace we got:
Now since we have the value for the wavelength we can find the velocity like this:
And if we convert this into cm/s we got:
