Answer: 0.1 m/s

Explanation:

Use formula,

v = f * w where, v is speed, f is frequency and w is wavelength.

Now,

v = 2 * 5 * 10 ^ -2 ( Remember to convert all the units to SI units. Here 5 cm becomes 5 * 10 ^ -2 m. )

v = 0.1 m/s.

Answer:

$v_{s}=65.2km/h$

Explanation:

Given data

Flight distance S=4890 km

Time difference Δt=t₂-t₁=40 min

Air speed of plane=980 km/h

To find

Speed of jet stream

Solution

When moving in the same direction as the jet stream time taken as t₁=d/(v+vs),v is velocity of plane and vs is velocity of plane

While moving in opposite direction t₂=d/(v+vs)

$t_{2}-t_{1}=\frac{d}{(v-v_{s}) } - \frac{d}{(v+v_{s}) }\\t_{2}-t_{1}=\frac{d(v+v_{s})-d(v-v_{s})}{(v-v_{s})(v+v_{s})} \\t_{2}-t_{1}=\frac{2dv_{s}}{(v)^{2} -(v_{s})^{2} }\\0.666667h=\frac{2(4890km)v_{s}}{(980km/h)^{2} -(v_{s})^{2} }\\0.666667((980km/h)^{2} -(v_{s})^{2})=9780v_{s}\\640267-0.666667(v_{s})^{2}-9780v_{s}=0\\0.666667(v_{s})^{2}+9780v_{s}-640267=0$

Apply quadratic formula to solve for vs

$v_{s}=65.2km/h$
