1). The equation is: (speed) = (frequency) x (wavelength)
Speed = (256 Hz) x (1.3 m) = 332.8 meters per second
2). If the instrument is played louder, the amplitude of the waves increases.
On the oscilloscope, they would appear larger from top to bottom, but the
horizontal size of each wave doesn't change.
If the instrument is played at a higher pitch, then the waves become shorter,
because 'pitch' is directly related to the frequency of the waves, and higher
pitch means higher frequency and more waves in any period of time.
If the instrument plays louder and at higher pitch, the waves on the scope
become taller and there are more of them across the screen.
3). The equation is: Frequency = (speed) / (wavelength)
(Notice that this is exactly the same as the equation up above in question #1,
only with each side of that one divided by 'wavelength'.)
Frequency = 300,000,000 meters per second / 1,500 meters = 200,000 per second.
That's ' 200 k Hz ' .
Note:
I didn't think anybody broadcasts at 200 kHz, so I looked up BBC Radio 4
on-line, and I was surprised. They broadcast on several different frequencies,
and one of them is 198 kHz !
It depends on what they are
Answer:
t = 2 hours
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance of the town, d = 90 miles
Speed, v = 45 mph
We need to find the time to get there. The speed of an object is given by :
Where
t is time
So, the required time is 2 hours.
