Description

This worksheet will prepare students to solve simple problems including wave speed calculations. By completing this activity, 8th and 9th grade science students will learn how to calculate wave speed. Students solve problems using the variables velocity, frequency, and wavelength along with the metric units kilometer per hour, hertz, and meter.

Important Information

Do not allow students to use calculators or they will finish this activity too quickly. This is an opportunity for them to apply their basic math skills.

How it Works

This activity teaches students to show their work step by step with columns for formula, work, and answer with units. Students learn to set up word problems with ease. Complete instructions for your classes are included.
