(a) Period of the wave
The period of a wave is the time needed for a complete cycle of the wave to pass through a certain point.
So, if an entire cycle of the wave passes through the given location in 5.0 seconds, this means that the period is equal to 5.0 s: T=5.0 s.

(b) Frequency of the wave
The frequency of a wave is defined as
f= \frac{1}{T}
since in our problem the period is T=5.0 s, the frequency is
f= \frac{1}{5.0 s}=0.2 Hz

(c) Speed of the wave
The speed of a wave is given by the following relationship between frequency f and wavelength \lambda:
v=f \lambda = (0.2 Hz)(2.5 m)=0.5 m/s

Light of wavelength 550nm in air is found to travel at 1.96
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Explanation:

given,

wavelength of light = 550 nm

                                = 550 x 10⁻⁹ m

speed of light = 1.96 x 10⁸ m/s

speed of sound = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

frequency of the light = ?

we know.

v = \nu \lambda

frequency of the light in the liquid is same as the frequency of the light in the air.

 ν is the frequency of light

\nu = \dfrac{v}{\lambda}

\nu = \dfrac{3\times 10^{8}}{550\times 10^{-9}}

    ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

Hence, the frequency of light in the liquid is equal to ν = 5.45 x 10¹⁴ Hz

3. The circuit below shows two outdoor lights, run by a battery. Four amps of
miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is given below.

Explanation:

From the diagram given in the question, we can see that the bulbs are in parallel connection. This implies that different current will go through the bulb but the same voltage. But the resistance of each bulb is the same, therefore the same current current will go through them.

This can further be understood if we determine the current flowing through each bulb. This is illustrated below:

Voltage (V) = 30V

Resistant 1 (R1) = 15Ω

Current 1 (I1) =..?

V = I1R1

30 = I1 x 15

Divide both side by 15

I1 = 30/15

I1 = 2A.

Voltage (V) = 30V

Resistant 2 (R2) = 15Ω

Current 2 (I2) =..?

V = I2R2

30 = I2 x 15

Divide both side by 15

I2 = 30/15

I2 = 2A.

The overall current(I) in the circuit:

I = I1 + I2

I = 2 + 2 = 4A.

From the illustrations above, we can see that the same current will flow through each bulb as the will current split into two equal parts

The same fluid flows through four different branching pipes. It enters each pipe from the left with the same speed, v0, and flow
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Explanation:

Following the equation of continuum, AV remains constant.

Case a

(3A)(V0) = AV1 + AV1 + AV1

3AV0 = 3AV1

V1 = V0

Case b

(A)(V0) = (A/3)V2 + (A/3)V2 + (A/3)V2 + (A/3)V2​​​​​​​

AV0 = 4V2/3

V2 = 3/4V0

Case c

(A/2)(V0) = AV3 + AV3 + AV3

AV0/2 = 3AV3

V3 = V0/6

Case d

(3A)(V0) = 2AV4 + 2AV4

3AV0 = 4AV4

V4 = 3V0/4

Comparing all the flow speeds, V1 is the largest.

Thus, the correct option is A.
