Relationship between wavelength and frequency


Relationship between wavelength and frequency:

Introduction:
The purpose of this experiment is to determine the relationship between frequency and wavelength by measuring the number of waves to pass through a spring. In this experiment, we will use a long spring with a length of 1.2m. We will wiggling the sping to creave 10 waves to and record the time.


 
Conclusion:
There is an inversely proportional relationship between wavelength and frequency. When frequency is decreasing; wavelength has increased. The source of error contributed in this experiment can be the inaccurate measurement of the length of spring, and the time needed for 10 waves to pass through the point.
