Does wavelength affect the energy of a wave?

Physics
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]1 year 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

vampirchik [111]

Answer:

These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream. Buoyant force pushes the ice cream upward

As a quality test of ball bearings, you drop bearings (small metal balls), with zero initial velocity, from a height of 1.94 m i
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

The average acceleration of the bearings is 0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

Height = 1.94  m

Bounced height = 1.48 m

Time interval t=14.86\times10^{-3}\ s

Velocity of the ball bearing just before hitting the steel plate

We need to calculate the velocity

Using conservation of energy

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2

Put the value into the formula

9.8\times1.94=\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2

v=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times1.94}

v=6.166\ m/s

Negative as it is directed downwards

After bounce back,

We need to calculate the velocity

Using conservation of energy

mgh=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2'

Put the value into the formula

9.8\times1.48=\dfrac{1}{2}\times v^2'

v'=\sqrt{2\times9.8\times1.48}

v'=5.38\ m/s

We need to calculate the average acceleration of the bearings while they are in contact with the plate

Using formula of acceleration

a=\dfrac{v-v'}{t}

Put the value into the formula

a=\dfrac{5.38-(-6.166)}{14.86\times10^{-3}}

a=776.98\ m/s^2

a=0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Hence,The average acceleration of the bearings is 0.77\times10^{3}\ m/s^2

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The answer is "telescopes".

Explanation:

Throughout ancient times, astronomical observatories have indeed been available, and so many historical locations were reserved for astronomical observations. All contemporary astronomers lacked within those older telescopes were lenses until 1610. A telescope is indeed an instrument used to view far-off objects. Telescopes often are being used to look at planets and stars.
