A string that is 3.6 m long is tied between two posts and plucked. The string produces a wave that has a frequency of 320 Hz and

travels with a speed of 192 m/s. How many full wavelengths of the wave fit on the string?

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to wavelength depending on the frequency and speed. Mathematically, the wavelength can be expressed as

\lambda = \frac{v}{f}

Where,

v = Velocity

f = Frequency,

Our values are given as

L = 3.6m

v= 192m/s

f= 320Hz

Replacing we have that

\lambda = \frac{192}{320}

\lambda = 0.6m

The total number of 'wavelengths' that will be in the string will be subject to the total length over the size of each of these undulations, that is,

N = \frac{L}{\lambda}

N = \frac{3.6}{0.6}

N = 6

Therefore the number of wavelengths of the wave fit on the string is 6.

Answer:

  • <u>verbal,</u>
  • <u> Intrapersonal</u>

Explanation:

Remember, we are told that "Professor Wooddro<em> </em><em>teaches an Introduction to Philosophy at the college, and loves to talk about the meaning of life and death"</em> which would require having verbal intelligence (the ability to understand and relate information using words).

Intrapersonal intelligence is also reflected by Professor Wooddro as we are told he "enjoys struggling with life's most challenging questions", <u>which shows his knowledge of his own strengths or weaknesses.</u>

A radioactive isotope of the element potassium decays to produce argon. If the ratio of argon to potassium is found to be 31:1,
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Argon to potassium ratio after 1 half life = 1:1

After 2 half lives = 75/25= 3:1

After 3 half lives = 87.5/12.5= 7:1

After 4 half lives = 93.75/6.25 = 15:1

After 5 half lives = 96.875/3.125 = 31/1
