Answer:
i = 0.3326 L
Explanation:
A fixed string at both ends presents a phenomenon of standing waves, two waves with the same frequency that are added together. The expression to describe these waves is
2 L = n λ n = 1, 2, 3…
The first harmonic or leather for n = 1
Wave speed is related to wavelength and frequency
v = λ f
λ = v / f
Let's replace in the first equation
2 L = 1 (v / f₁)
For the shortest length L = L-l
2 (L- l) = 1 (v / f₂)
These two equations form our equation system, let's eliminate v
v = 2L f₁
v = 2 (L-l) f₂
2L f₁ = 2 (L-l) f₂
L- l = L f₁ / f₂
l = L - L f₁ / f₂
l = L (1- f₁ / f₂)
.
Let's calculate
l / L = (1- 309/463)
i / L = 0.3326
Different speeds of light through two separate media ... and the difference in wavelength caused by the difference ... causes the bending of waves fronts associated with light rays.
AFTER the bend, since the light rays then travel in a different direction, we may also say that the 'velocity' has changed.
The speed is 10.5 miles per minute, or 630 miles per hour.
We don't know the velocity, because you didn't tell us anything about the direction I'm going.
During convection of air currents, cool air sinks. <em>(b)</em>
