Explanation:
Below is an attachment containing the solution
A wave looses its power as it comes to shore because it gets less deeper every second it gets closer to shore
Answer:
B. Axial stress divided by axial strain
Explanation:
Elasticity:
It is the tendency of an object to deform along the axis when an opposing force is applied without facing permanent change in shape.
Plasticity:
When an object crosses the elasticity limit, it enters plasticity where the change due to stress is permanent and the object might even break.
Yield strength:
Yield strength is the point of maximum bearable stress that indicates the limit of elasticity.
Our case:
As the stress applied is less than the yield strength, the rod is still in the elasticity state and its modulus can be calculated.
Modulus of Elasticity = Stress along axis/Ratio of change in length to original length
Axial strain is basically the ratio of change in length to original length.
So, Modulus of Elasticity = Axial Stress/ Axial Strain
Frequency of the wave is 2 per second
Explanation:
- Frequency is the number of times waves pass at a particular point of time. Here, time period = 0.5 s
- Frequency is given by the formula
f = 1/T, where f is the frequency and T is the time period
⇒ f = 1/0.5 = 2 per second
