Suppose a sound wave and an electromagnetic wave have the same frequency. Which has the longer wavelength?

Physics

3 0

Answer:

Electromagnetic wave has longer wavelength.

Explanation:

The velocity (v) of a wave is the product between frequency (f) and wavelength (λ):

v=\lambda f (1)

Electromagnetic waves travel on air near the velocity of light 299792458 \frac{m}{s}, and sound waves travel on air at approximately 343,2 \frac{m}{s}, so if the frequency is equal for both, and the velocity is directly proportional to wavelength as shown in (1) then higher velocities imply higher wavelengths, that is, electromagnetic wave has longer wavelength.

After the box comes to rest at position x1, a person starts pushing the box, giving it a speed v1. when the box reaches position
KiRa [710]

As we know by work energy theorem

total work done = change in kinetic energy

so here we can say that wok done on the box will be equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system

W_p = KE_f - KE_i

initial the box is at rest at position x = x1

so initial kinetic energy will be ZERO

at final position x = x2 final kinetic energy is given as

KE_f = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

now work done is given as

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2 - 0

so we can say

W_p = \frac{1}{2}mv_1^2

so above is the work done on the box to slide it from x1 to x2

What is the speed of a wave in (m/s) with a 5 meter wavelength and a period of 20 seconds?
arlik [135]

Answer: 0.25 m/s

Explanation:  Speed = wavelengt · frequency  

v = λf   and frequency is 1/period  f = 1/T

Then v = λ/T = 5 m / 20 s = 0.25 m/s
