Answer:

165 minutes

Explanation:

We can break the numbers into prime numbers

15 = 3 * 5

33 = 3 * 11

55 = 5 * 11

The shortest time that must pass before they are all together again would be the least multiple that is divisible by all 3 number, which is

3 * 5 * 11 = 165

Hence after 165 minutes the 3 cars should all meet together again.

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Wave produced in string and waves produced in air are different . The only similarity is that their frequency are equal . Otherwise , no similarity . One is transverse ( on wire ) , the other is longitudinal ( air ) . Their velocities too are different .

velocity = wavelength x frequency

if frequency is constant

wavelength  ∝  velocity

wavelength is proportional to velocity . Since their velocities are different , their wavelength too will be different.
