What will change the velocity of a periodic wave?

Physics
1 answer:
Georgia [21]3 years ago
7 0
If it's a mechanical wave, then its speed depends on the physical characteristics of the medium.

If it's an electromagnetic wave, then its speed depends on the
electrical characteristics of the medium.

Either way, the properties of the medium determine the wave speed.
You want to change the speed ?  You have to change the properties
of the medium.

A 5c charge experiences a force of 40n when put at a certain location in space. What is the electric field at that location?
stepladder [879]
The 'strength' of the electric field is the force on 1C of charge at that point.

At this 'certain location', the field is 40/5 = 8 newtons per coulomb = <u>8 volts</u>

72km/hr = 72000m/3600seconds(we convert km/hr to m/s
= 20m/s
Velocity= 20m/s
In 4seconds,distance covered=20x4= 80m
Therefore,an accident occurs because in 4seconds, the car would have moved past 20m

Explain why the speed of light is lower than<br> 3.0 x 108 m/s as it goes through different media.
jekas [21]

Answer:

Sample Response: In a vacuum, there are no atoms or particles that interfere with the path of light. However, in other media, the speed of light is lower than 3.0 × 108 m/s because the wave is continuously absorbed and re-emitted by each atom in its path. The differences in speed are due to the composition of the medium and the density of the particles in the medium.

A closed-end organ pipe is used to produce a mixture of sounds. The third and fifth harmonics in the mixture have frequencies of
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

F_1=366.67Hz

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Frequency of 3rd harmonics F_3=1100

Frequency of 5th harmonics F_3=1833

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 3rd Harmonics is mathematically given by

 \lambda_3=\frac{4}{3}l

Therefore

 F_3=\frac{3v}{4l}

Generally the equation for Wavelength at 1st Harmonics is mathematically given by

 \lambda_1=\frac{4}{1}l

Therefore

 F_1=\frac{v}{4l}

Generally the equation for the frequency of the first harmonic is mathematically given by

 F_1=\frac{F_3}{3}

 F_1=\frac{1100}{3}

 F_1=366.67Hz
