The speed of the wave with the given frequency and wavelength is 1.2m/s.

Given the data in the question;

  • Wavelength of the wave; \lambda = 0.4m
  • Frequency; f = 3Hz = 3s^{-1}
  • Speed of the wave; v = \ ?

<h3>Wavelength</h3>

Wavelength is  the distance over which the shapes of waves are repeated. It is the spatial period of a periodic wave.

It is expressed as;

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where v is velocity/speed and f is frequency.

Now, we can easily get the speed of the wave by substituting our given values into the expression above.

\lambda = \frac{v}{f} \\\\0.4m = \frac{v}{3s^{-1}}\\ \\v = 0.4m * 3s^{-1}\\\\v = 1.2ms^{-1}\\\\v = 1.2m/s

Therefore, the speed of the wave with the given frequency and wavelength is 1.2m/s.

A pump jack scaffold must be fitted with two ______ gripping mechanisms to prevent slippage.
FromTheMoon [43]
A pump jack scaffold must be fitted with two positive gripping mechanisms to prevent slippage. Pump jacks are a uniquely designed scaffold consisting of a platform supported by movable brackets on vertical poles. The brackets are designed to be raised and lowered in a manner similar to an automobile jack. It is important to make sure that pump jack brackets have two positive gripping mechanisms to prevent any failure or slippage.

How many normal modes of oscillation or natural frequencies does each if the following have: (
Vadim26 [7]
<span>Each of these systems has exactly one degree of freedom and hence only one natural frequency obtained by solving the differential equation describing the respective motions. For the case of the simple pendulum of length L the governing differential equation is d^2x/dt^2 = - gx/L with the natural frequency f = 1/(2π) √(g/L). For the mass-spring system the governing differential equation is m d^2x/dt^2 = - kx (k is the spring constant) with the natural frequency ω = √(k/m). Note that the normal modes are also called resonant modes; the Wikipedia article below solves the problem for a system of two masses and two springs to obtain two normal modes of oscillation.</span>
