There are problems with the first sentence, and it's not really needed when
working with this question.  So let's just take the 20 (Hz ?) frequency from
the first sentence, and ignore the rest of it for right now.

           Wavelength = (speed) / (frequency) =

                                   (331 m/s) / (20 Hz) = <em>16.55 meters</em>.

The equivalence between gravitational and inertial mass is explained in : the set of all of the events that happened on Earth
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

The correct answer is theory of general relativity.

Explanation:

According to the statement of equivalence the gravitational mass force on an object standing on the surface of earth is same as the pseudo force that acts on it if it accelerated at acceleration equal to acceleration due to gravity.

According to Einestine both the forces are indistinguishable  as both the forces produce same effects. Thus both are equivalent and thus gravity is a phenomenon that can be analysed in a radically different way which gives some strange results such as bending of light, existence of black holes,e.t.c

Two boats are anchored in the harbor, separated my a horizontal distance of 14m. The boats boo up and down as waves enter the ha
Talja [164]

Given:

Horizontal distance between two boats = x = 14 m

One boat is at trough, the other is at crest.

As there is no crests between them meaning the boat are next to each other.

Wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests/troughs = w

The distance between a crest and a trough next to it = w/2

Complete cycles = c = 5

Time taken for c cycles = t = 15 s

Vertical distance between two boats = y = 2.4 m

To find:

wavelength = w = 2x = 28 m

Amplitude =  A = Displacement from mean to extreme position = y/2 = 1.2 m

Time period for one cycle = T = t/c = 15/5 = 3 s/cycle

frequency = 1/T = 1/3 = 0.33 hertz

speed = wavelength/Period = w/T = 28/3 = 9.33 m/s
