Explanation:

A wave is a disturbance in a medium. For example, when some pebbles are thrown in water, the water particles gets disturbed. A wave is characterized by the following parameters i.e.

Frequency

Wavelength etc

The number of oscillations or vibrations in a medium is called the frequency of a wave.

Also, the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs is called the wavelength of a wave. The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave is given by :

Speed of wave = frequency × wavelength

The pressure on a fluid at rest in a pipe increases by 20 Pa. How does this change in pressure affect the pressure on the fluid
timofeeve [1]

Answer:The change in pressure can affect the pressure on the fluid through the radius and diameter of the pipe.

r^² x Pressure (pa).

Therefore the narrower the other part of the pile, the greater the pressure on the fluid at such part, the wider in other part the lesser the pressure on the fluid at this part.
