150. A wave has a period of 3.00 x 10 -5 seconds.  If the speed of the wave is 2.00 x 103 m/s, what is the wavelength?  
    
A. 1.5 x 10 -8 m        1                  1
f = ----  =  -------------------- = 3.33 x 10 4 s -1 
       T        3.00 x 10 -5 s

   
v = lambda f

   
                  v      2.00 x 10 3 m s -1 
lambda = ---- = ------------------------ = 0.0600 m
                  f       3.33 x 10 4 s -1

B. 0.0600 m
C. 1.00 x 10 3 m
D. 6.67 x 10 7 m
