Explanation:

velocity = wavelength × frequency

3×10⁸ = 400/10⁹ × frequency

frequency = 3 × 10¹⁵ /400

frequency = 75×10¹¹Hz

A 3 Hz wave has a wavelength of 0.4 m. Calculate the speed of the wave (in m/s).
anyanavicka [17]

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.

You come across an open container which is filled with two liquids. Since the two liquids have different density there is a dist
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

526.57 Pa

Explanation:

P ( pressure at the bottom of the container) = 1.049 × 10^5 pa

Using the formula of pressure in an open liquid

Pw ( pressure due to water) = ρhg where ρ is density of water in kg/m³, h is the height in meters, and g is acceleration due to gravity in m/s²

Pw = 1000 × 9.81 ×0.209 = 2050.29 Pa

P( atmospheric pressure) = 1.013 × 10^5 Pa

Pl ( pressure due to the liquid) = ρ(density of the liquid) × h (depth of the liquid) × g

Subtract each of the pressure from the absolute pressure at the bottom

P(bottom) - atmospheric pressure

(1.049 × 10^5) - (1.013 × 10^5) = 0.036 × 10^5 = 3600 Pa

subtract pressure due to water from the remainder

3600 - 2050.29 = 1549.71 Pa

1549.71 =  ρ(density of the liquid) × h (depth of the liquid) × g

ρ (density of the liquid) = 1549.71 / (h × g) = 1549.71 / (0.3 × 9.81) =526.57 Pa
