15 cards from this deck
v=fλv = f\lambdav=fλ
vvv, measured in m/s
fff, measured in Hz
λ\lambdaλ, measured in metres (m)
Number of complete wave cycles passing a point per second
T=1fT = \frac{1}{f}T=f1
They are reciprocals of each other
Distance between two identical points on consecutive waves
c=3×108c = 3 \times 10^8c=3×108 m/s
c=fλc = f\lambdac=fλ
Speed ccc is constant; fff and λ\lambdaλ are inversely proportional
f=vλf = \frac{v}{\lambda}f=λv
Low frequency, very long wavelengths
High frequency, extremely short wavelengths
All travel at the same speed: the speed of light
