Does wavelength affect the energy of a wave?

Physics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Not quite

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave is inversely proportional to its wavelength. That means that waves with a high frequency have a short wavelength, while waves with a low frequency have a longer wavelength

What determines the strength of a wave?

Wave height is affected by wind speed, wind duration (or how long the wind blows), and fetch, which is the distance over water that the wind blows in a single direction. If wind speed is slow, only small waves result, regardless of wind duration or fetch.

So,

As Wavelength increases, The energy of the wave spreads and it decreases

A 3.20 kg block starts at rest and slides a distance d down a frictionless β = 30.0 ◦ incline, where it runs into a spring with
Virty [35]

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) work done by gravitational force

= mg sinθ ( d + .21)

Potential energy stored in compressed spring

= 1/2 k x²

= .5 x 431 x ( .21 )²

= 9.5

According to conservation of energy

mg sinθ ( d + .21)  = 9.5

3.2 x 9.8 x sin 30( d + .21 ) = 9.5

d = 40 cm

b )

As long as mg sin30 is greater than kx ( restoring force ) , there will be acceleration in the block.

mg sin30 = kx

3.2 x 9.8 x .5 = 431 x

x =  3.63 cm

When there is compression of 3.63 cm in the spring , block will have maximum velocity. there after its speed will start decreasing.

Singly charged gas ions are accelerated from rest through a voltage of 10.3 V. At what temperature (in K) will the average kinet
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Temperature of the gas molecules is 7.96 x 10⁴ K

Explanation:

Given :

Ions accelerated through voltage, V = 10.3 volts

The work done to change the position of singly charged gas ions is given by the relation :

W = q x V

Here q is charge of the ions and its value is 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C.

Average kinetic energy of gas molecules is given by the relation:

K.E. = \frac{3}{2}kT

Here T is temperature and k is Boltzmann constant and its value is 1.38 x 10⁻²³ J/K.

According to the problem, the average kinetic energy of gas is equal to the work done to move the singly charged ions, i.e. ,

K.E. = W

\frac{3}{2}kT = qV

Rearrange the above equation in terms of T :

T= \frac{2qV}{3k}

Substitute the suitable values in the above equation.

T=\frac{2\times1.6\times10^{-19}\times10.3 }{3\times1.38\times10^{-23} }

T = 7.96 x 10⁴ K

Two blocks of masses 20 kg and 8.0 kg are connected togetherby
OleMash [197]

Answer:

14 N

Explanation:

The tension in the second string is puling both the masses of 20 kg and 8 kg with acceleration of 0.5 m s⁻²

So tension in the second string = total mass x acceleration

= 28 x .5 = 14 N . Ans..
