Calculate the frequency of a wave given its wavelength and speed. Frequency represents the number of complete wave cycles passing a point per second.
Enter your values below
Speed of the wave in the medium
Distance between consecutive wave crests
How this calculator works
Frequency equals wave speed divided by wavelength. For a given medium, shorter wavelengths correspond to higher frequencies.
