Find the frequency of a wave of wavelength 2.5m and speed 400 m/s

Physics
1 answer:
Sedaia [141]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The frequency of wave is 160Hz.

Explanation:

Given that the formula of speed is V = f×λ where V represents speed, f is frequency and λ is wavelength.

So first thing, you have to make frequency the subject by dividing wavelength on both sides :

v = f \times λ \:

v \div  λ =  f \times λ \div λ

f =  \frac{v}{λ}

Next you have to substitute the value of v and f into the formula :

Let λ = 2.5m,

Let v = 400m/s,

f =  \frac{400}{2.5}

f = 160Hz

A large body collides with a stationary small body from the rear end. How do the bodies behave if the collision is inelastic?.
alexdok [17]
If the collision is inelastic, there is every possibility that the large body will drag the small stationary body along with it in the direction of the collision. Some amount of heat, light and sound energy will also be produced due to the kinetic energy of the large body. I hope the answer helps you.

Which is more dense, cold freshwater or warm seawater?
svp [43]
Cold freshwater<span> is </span>denser<span> than </span>warm seawater<span>, because of the salinity and temperature variations. Cold water would have less salt since the solubility of the salt is lower as compared to warm water. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

A 6.0 m section of wire carries a current of 5.2 A from east to west in the earth's magnetic field of 1.0 × 105 T at a location
NNADVOKAT [17]
Well, since you only want direction, ignore the numbers. Use the right hand rule.
Current (pointer finger) points west (left). 
Magnetic field (middle finger) points south (towards you). 
Force (thumb) then points up (away from the earth)

Two states of matter are described below. State A: Cannot be compressed and retains its shape State B: Highly compressible Which
telo118 [61]

Answer:

State A = piece of metal; State B = air

Explanation:

For the three main states of matter here's how it breaks down.

Solid - Cannot be compressed and retains its shape

Liquid - Cannot be compressed and does not retain its shape

Gas - Compressible and does not retain its shape.

Knowing this State A has to be solid.  Only one of the options has A as a solid, so that's the answer.   Worth knowing state B is a gas though, only one compressible, just like solid is the only one that retains its shape.
