A water wave traves with a length of 10 meters and a frequency of 30 hertz, what is the velocity of the wave?

Physics
1 answer:
UNO [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: 300 m/s

Explanation:

Given that:

length of water wave (λ) = 10 metres

Frequency of water wave (F) = 30 Hertz

Velocity of water wave (V) = ?

The velocity of a wave is the distance covered by the wave in one second. It is measured in metre per second, and represented by the symbol V. It is related to frequency and wave length by the formula: V = F λ

V = 30 Hertz x 10 metres

V = 300 m/s

Thus, the velocity of the water wave is 300 m/s

A student uses an audio oscillator of adjustable frequency to measure the depth of a water well. The student reports hearing two
katrin [286]

Answer:

a)     L = 33.369 m , b) 21

Explanation:

The analysis of the ocean depth can be performed assuming that at the bottom of the ocean there is a node and the surface must have a belly, so the expression for resonance is

         λ = 4 L / n

         n = 1, 3, 5, ...

The speed of the wave is

         v = λ f

        v = 4L / n f

        L = n v / 4f

Let's write the expression for the two frequencies

       L = n₁ 343/4 53.95

       L = n₁ 1,589

       

       L = n₂ 343/4 59

       L = n₂ 1.4539

Let's solve the two equations

       n₁ 1,589 = n₂ 1,459

       n₁ / n₂ = 1.4539 / 1.589

       n₁ / n2 = 0.91498

Since the two frequencies are very close the whole numbers must be of consecutive resonances, let's test what values ​​give this value

  n₁    n₂    n₁ / n₂

  1      3       0.3

  3     5       0.6

  5     7        0.7

  7     9        0.77

  9    11        0.8

  17   19       0.89

  19  21        0.905

  21  23       0.913

  23 25       0.92

Therefore the relation of the nodes is n₁ = 21  and n₂ = 23

Let's calculate

                L = n₁ 1,589

                L = 21  1,589

                L = 33.369 m

b) the number of node and nodes is equal therefore there are 21 antinode

a train leaves a station heading east at 50 mph from that same station a car drives north at a speed of 30mph after 3 hours how
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

d = 175 miles

Explanation:

Train is moving towards East with constant speed of 50 mph

While car is moving at speed of 30 mph

so after t = 3 hours

the distance moved by the train is given as

d_1 = vt

d_1 = (50)(3) = 150 miles

at the same time the distance moved by the car is given as

d_2 = 30(3) = 90 miles

now we know that both car and train is moving perpendicular to each other

So the distance between them after t = 3 hours is given as

d= \sqrt{d_1^2 + d_2^2}

d = \sqrt{150^2 + 90^2}

d = 175 miles

You observe a distant galaxy. You find that a spectral line, resulting from an electron transition in hydrogen, is shifted from
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The galaxy is moving away from the observer

Explanation: when a galaxy is moving away from us, the light we percieve from it is "streched". Since the wavelength has an inverse raltionship whith frequency, the longer the wavelength is, the lower the frequency. And lower frequencies correspond to red and infrarred light.

So when we see the light has shifted to the infrarred part of the spectrum, it means the source is traveling away from us, making the light waves we percieve streched and move from visible light to infrarred.

The force of replusion between two like charged particles will increase if​
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

The distance of separation is decreased

Explanation:

From Cuolomb's law, we know that the strength of charge is inversely proportional to the distance of separation between the charges. To mean that increasing the distance let's say from 2m to 3 m would mean initial strength getting form 1/4 to 1/9 which is a decrease. The vice versa is true hence the force of repulsion can increase only when we decrease the distance of separation.
