Which describes the wavelength of a wave?

1 answer:

6 0

So we want to know what physical quantity represents the wavelength of a wave. Waves have a few phyiscal quantities that are used to describe them. Frequency, amplitude and wavelength. Frequency is the number of oscillations in a specific time interval, amplitude is the maximal elongation of a wave and wavelength is the distance from one point ona a wave to the next similar point. So the correct answer is B.

Answer:

$R_3 < R_1 < R_2$

Explanation:

The resistance of a wire is given by:

$R=\frac{\rho L}{A}$

where

$\rho$ is the resistivity of the material

L is the length of the wire

A is the cross-sectional area of the wire

1) The first wire has length L and cross-sectional area A. So, its resistance is:

$R_1=\frac{\rho L}{A}$

2) The second wire has length twice the first one: 2L, and same thickness, A. So its resistance is

$R_2=\frac{2\rho L}{A}$

3) The third wire has length L (as the first one), but twice cross sectional area, 2A. So, its resistance is

$R_3=\frac{\rho L}{2A}$

By comparing the three expressions, we find

$R_3 < R_1 < R_2$

So, this is the ranking of the wire from most current (least resistance) to least current (most resistance).
