How are wavelength and frequency of a wave related?

Physics
2 answers:
Nesterboy [21]3 years ago

Wavelength is the length from one peak of a wave to the next, while frequency is the amount of waves present in a unit of time. The greater the wavelength the smaller the frequency. The smaller the wavelength, the bigger the frequency.

The product of

           (wavelength) x (frequency)

is always the same number.  It's the speed of the wave.

So if either number changes, the other will always change by the
same factor in the opposite direction, in order to keep their product
constant.

Each tire on a car has a radius of 0.330 m and is rotating with an angular speed of 11.7 revolutions/s. Find the linear speed v
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

The linear speed of the car, v, is 24.26 m/s

Explanation:

Given;

radius of the car's tire, r = 0.330 m

angular speed of the car, ω = 11.7 revolutions/s

The angular speed of the car in radian per second:

\omega = 11.7 \ \frac{rev}{s} \times \frac{2\pi \ rad}{1 \ rev} \\\\\omega = 73.523 \ rad/s

The linear speed of the car, v, is calculated as;

v = ωr

v = 73.523 rad/s  x  0.33 m

v = 24.26 m/s

Therefore, the linear speed of the car, v, is 24.26 m/s

Particles in which state of matter are the most likely to interact with each other to cause a chemical reaction?
Mazyrski [523]
I think when particles are in the gas form they are most likely to cause a chemical reaction considering the fact that gas particles aren't very controllable and it would make sense that they would react unexpectedly

An elevator does 9.75 x 10(4) J of work on a person riding up to another floor. How much energy does the person gain
Serjik [45]

Answer:

9.75 x 10^4 J

Explanation:

Work done, W = 9.75 x 10^4 J

According to the work energy theorem, the change in kinetic energy is equal to the work done by all the forces.

So, here work done is 9.75 x 10^4 J so the change in kinetic energy is 9.75 x 10^4 J.

A motorcyclist drives around a bend with a 20 m radius, with a constant velocity of 3 m/s. The motorcyclist and the motorcycle h
Pavel [41]

Answer:

a=0.45\ m/s^2

Explanation:

Given that,

The radius of a bend, r = 20 m

Velocity of motorcyclist, v = 3 m/s

The combined mass of motorcyclist and the motorcycle is 50 kg

We need to find the motorcyclist’s centripetal acceleration. The formula used to find the centripetal acceleration is given by :

a=\dfrac{v^2}{r}\\\\a=\dfrac{(3)^2}{20}\\\\a=0.45\ m/s^2

So, the acceleration of the motorcyclist is 0.45\ m/s^2.

Find the magnitude of acceleration (ft/s^2) a person experiences when he or she is texting and driving 58mph, hits a wall, and c
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

350 ft/s²

Explanation:

First, convert mph to ft/s.

58 mi/hr × (5280 ft/mi) × (1 hr / 3600 s) = 85.1 ft/s

Given:

v₀ = 85.1 ft/s

v = 0 ft/s

t = 0.24 s

Find: a

v = at + v₀

a = (v − v₀) / t

a = (0 ft/s − 85.1 ft/s) / 0.24 s

a = -354 ft/s²

Rounded to two significant figures, the magnitude of the acceleration is 350 ft/s².
