What is the period of a wave with a frequency of 100 Hz and a wavelength of 2.0 m

spin [16.1K]

The answer for the following answer is answered below.

Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.
Therefore the option for the answer is "B".

Explanation:

Frequency (f):

The number of waves that pass a fixed place in a given amount of time.

The SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz)

Time period (T):

The time taken for one complete cycle of vibration to pass a given point.

The SI unit of time period is seconds (s)

Given:

frequency (f) = 100 Hz

wavelength (λ) = 2.0 m

To calculate:

Time period (T)

We know;

According to the formula;

f = $\frac{1}{T}$

Where,

f represents the frequency

T represents the time period

from the formula;

T = $\frac{1}{f}$

T = $\frac{1}{100}$

T = 0.01 seconds

Therefore the time period of the wave is 0.01 seconds.

Mount Everest rises to a height of 8,850 m above sea level. At a base camp on the mountain the atmospheric pressure is measured

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

74.86°C

Explanation:

P₂ = Vapour pressure of water at sea level = 760 mmHg

P₁ = Pressure at base camp = 296 mmHg

T₂ = Temperature of water = 373 K

ΔH°vap for H2O = 40.7 kJ/mol = 40700 J/mol

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

From Claussius Clapeyron equation

$ln\frac{P_2}{P_1}=\frac{\Delta H}{R}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}=\frac{40700}{8.314}\left(\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{373}\right)\\\Rightarrow ln\frac{760}{296}\times \frac{8.314}{40700}+\frac{1}{373}=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow 0.0028735=\frac{1}{T_1}\\\Rightarrow T_1=347.996\ K$
