A wave travels at 295 m/s and has a wavelength of 2.50 m. What is the frequency of the wave?
posledela

Answer:

118\; \rm Hz.

Explanation:

The frequency f of a wave is equal to the number of wave cycles that go through a point on its path in unit time (where "unit time" is typically equal to one second.)

The wave in this question travels at a speed of v= 295\; \rm m\cdot s^{-1}. In other words, the wave would have traveled 295\; \rm m in each second. Consider a point on the path of this wave. If a peak was initially at that point, in one second that peak would be

How many wave cycles can fit into that 295\; \rm m? The wavelength of this wave\lambda = 2.50\; \rm m gives the length of one wave cycle. Therefore:

\displaystyle \frac{295\;\rm m}{2.50\; \rm m} = 118.

That is: there are 118 wave cycles in 295\; \rm m of this wave.

On the other hand, Because that 295\; \rm m of this wave goes through that point in each second, that 118 wave cycles will go through that point in the same amount of time. Hence, the frequency of this wave would be

Because one wave cycle per second is equivalent to one Hertz, the frequency of this wave can be written as:

f = 118\; \rm s^{-1} = 118\; \rm Hz.

The calculations above can be expressed with the formula:

\displaystyle f = \frac{v}{\lambda},

where

  • v represents the speed of this wave, and
  • \lambda represents the wavelength of this wave.

2. For each pair of variables, identify which is the independent and which is the dependent variable. a. How much gas is left in
Korvikt [17]

For each pair Independent variable and the dependent variable is -

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled

An independent variable in any experiment or research is a variable that is manipulated or changed in the experiment, this change leads to a direct effect on the dependent variable.

A dependent variable is a variable that is directly affected by the independent variable and it is the variable that is measured or tested in an experiment.

Thus,

a. How much gas is left in the gas tank vs. how far the car has traveled.

  • Independent variable =  how far the car has traveled
  • dependent variable = How much gas is left in the gas tank

b. How much money you've spent vs. how much money is in your wallet.

  • Independent variable =  How much money you've spent
  • dependent variable = how much money is in your wallet.

c. How far a toy car traveled vs. how much time went by​

  • Independent variable =  how much time went by​
  • dependent variable = How far a toy car traveled
