Wave velocity is the speed at which a wave travels through a medium. It is determined by the type of wave and the properties of the medium, such as density and elasticity. In general, wave velocity can be calculated using the formula

$v=f\times \lambda v\; =\; f\; \backslash times\; \backslash lambda$

v=f×λ, where

$vv$

v is the wave velocity,

$ff$

f is the frequency, and

$\lambda \backslash lambda$

λ is the wavelength. Different types of waves, such as sound waves, light waves, and water waves, have varying velocities. Understanding wave velocity is crucial in fields like physics, engineering, and communications, as it impacts wave behavior and interactions.
