A wave traveling at 230 m/sec has a wavelength of 2.1 meters. What is the frequency of the wave?

2 answers:

4 0

Velocity = wavelength * frequency,
frequency = velocity/wavelength,
230/2.1,
109.5 Hz 

Hope this helps :)

Answer:

The frequency of the wave is 109.52 Hz.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A wave traveling at 230 m/sec has a wavelength of 2.1 meters.

To find : What is the frequency of the wave?

Solution :

We know that,

$\text{Velocity} =\text{ Wavelength}\times \text{Frequency}$

We have given,

Velocity of wave is 230 m/s.

Wavelength is 2.1 meters.

Substitute in formula,

$230 =2.1\times \text{Frequency}$

$\text{Frequency}=\frac{230}{2.1}$

$\text{Frequency}=109.52$

Therefore, The frequency of the wave is 109.52 Hz.

anygoal [31]

Answer: C. 00:00 $927; Vince wrote the wrong number to represent the interest rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Amount borrowed (p) = 900

Simple interest (r) = 1.5% = 0.015

Time (t) = 2 years

Amount he'll pay back (A) :

A = P(1 + rt)

A = 900(1 + 0.015(2))

A = 900(1 + 0.03)

A = 900(1.03)

A = $927

Which statement describes if there is an extraneous solution to the equation √x-3 = x-5? A. there are no solutions to the equati

Brrunno [24]

Remember that an extraneous solution of an equation, is the solution that emerges from solving the equation but is not a valid solution.

Lets solve our equation to find out what is the extraneous solution:
 $\sqrt{x-3} =x-5$
$(\sqrt{x-3})^2 =(x-5)^2$
$x-3=x^2-10x+25$
$x^2-11x+28=0$
$(x-4)(x-7)=0$
$x-4=0$ and $x-7=0$
$x=4$ and $x=7$

So, the solutions of our equation are $x=4$ and $x=7$ . Lets replace each solution in our original equation to check if they are valid solutions:
- For $x=7$
$\sqrt{x-3} =x-5$
$\sqrt{7-3} =7-5$
$\sqrt{4} =2$
$2=2$
We can conclude that 7 is a valid solution of the equation.

- For $x=4$
$\sqrt{x-3} =x-5$
$\sqrt{4-3} =4-5$
$\sqrt{1} =1$
$1 \neq 1$
We can conclude that 4 is not a valid solution of the equation; therefore, 4 is a extraneous solution.

We can conclude that the correct answer is: D. the extraneous solution is x = 4

Ashley draws a square that has a diagonal of

xz_007 [3.2K]

The diagonal is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the sides of the square as legs.
By Pythagoras (s = side)
s^2 + s^2 = 15^2
2s^2 = 225
s^2 = 112.5
s = sqrt(112.5)
s = 10.6 cm (to the nearest tenth)
