Answer:

wavelength = 0.5 meters

Explanation:

Wavelength is the distance between successive trough or crest of a wave. Wavelength is inversely proportional to frequency. This means the shorter the wavelength the higher the frequency .The S.I unit of wavelength is meters.

Wavelength can be represented with a Greek symbol known as lambda (λ).

The formula below can be use to represent wavelength .

λ = v/f

where λ = wavelength

v = velocity

f = frequency

v = 24m/s

f = 48 Hertz

λ = 24/48

λ = 0.5meters

Answer:

Wavelength is 0.5

Explanation:

To work it out, you divide Wave speed by the Frequency (24÷48=0.5)

A cyclist is moving at a speed of 15 m/s. If the combined mass of the bike and person is 100 kg,

MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Momentum is equal to mass times velocity in kg and m/s, respectively. Therefore,

p = 100(15) so

p = 1500 $\frac{kg*m}{s}$

If wheel turning at a constant rate completes 100 revolutions in 10 s its angular speed is:

GenaCL600 [577]

The frequency of the wheel is given by:
$f= \frac{N}{t}$
where N is the number of revolutions and t is the time taken. By using N=100 and t=10 s, we find the frequency of the wheel:
$f= \frac{100}{10 s}=10 s^{-1}$

And now we can find the angular speed of the wheel, which is related to the frequency by:
$\omega=2 \pi f=2 \pi (10 s^{-1})=62.8 s^{-1}$
