Answer:

Frequency = 2m/s1m=2 waves/s, or 2 Hz

A wave is traveling at a speed of 2 m/s and has a frequency of 2 Hz.

Explanation:

wd Calculating Wave Frequency or Wavelength from Wave Speed

The equation for wave speed:

Frequency = SpeedWavelength or Wavelength = SpeedFrequency

Therefore, if you know the speed of a wave and either the wavelength or wave frequency, you can calculate the missing value.

For example, suppose that a wave is traveling at a speed of 2 meters per second and has a wavelength of 1 meter. Then the frequency of the wave is:

- Frequency = 2m/s1m=2 waves/s, or 2 Hz

A wave is traveling at a speed of 2 m/s and has a frequency of 2 Hz. What is its wavelength?

- Substitute these values into the equation for wavelength:

- Wavelength = 2m/s2waves/s=1 m

Are rocks made of matter?​
ololo11 [35]

Answer:

Yes, the rocks are made of matter

Explanation:

Let's remember the definition of matter.

Matter is all that has mass and occupies a place in space. Therefore, if we measure the mass of each rock we will know its mass, the other fact is that rocks like any particular body are occupying a place in an empty space.

The opposite of this is antimatter and can its extent be given by the quantum mechanics.

Why is it that an object can accelerate while
posledela

For the same reason that you can skate around a curve at constant speed but not with constant velocity.

The DIRECTION you're going is part of your velocity, but it's not part of your speed.

If the DIRECTION changes, that's a change of velocity.

The object doesn't have to change speed to have a different velocity. A change of direction is enough to do it.

And any change of velocity is called acceleration.

When sunlight strikes oil on the surface of water a variety of colors are observed what is the best explanation for this observa
klio [65]
Light waves are reflected from front and back surfaces of the thin films and constructive interference between the two reflected waves occurs in different places for different wavelengths. Light shining on the upper surface of the thin film with thickness t is partly reflected at the upper surface (path abc). Light transmitted from the upper surface is partly reflected at the lower surface (path abdef). The two reflected waves come together at point P on the retina of the eye. Depending on the phase relationship, they may interfere constructively or destructively. Different colors have different wavelengths, so the interference may be constructive for some colors and destructive for others.

How would you use Tectonic plate and hot spot in the same sentence
Sonbull [250]
It's kinda long but...
A tectonic setting where volcanic action occurs is called <span>a </span>hot-spot (intraplate<span>), which describes volcanic activity that occurs </span>within tectonic plates<span> and is generally NOT related to plate boundaries and plate movements.
</span>Hope this helps!!:)

The city of Istanbul turkey sits on what?
Sati [7]

Istanbul is a transcontinental city in Eurasia, straddling the Bosporus strait (which separates Europe and Asia) between the Sea of Marmara and the Black Sea. Its commercial and historical center lies on the European side and about a third of its population lives in suburbs on the Asian side of the Bosporus.
