How are frequency and wave period related?

Physics
1 answer:
dedylja [7]3 years ago
6 0
-- The unit of frequency is "per second"  (Hz), which is [reciprocal time].

-- The unit of period is "second", which is [time].

Do you see where this is going ?

'Frequency' and 'period' are reciprocals of each other.

For any wave ...

Period  =  (1) / (frequency) .

Frequency  =  (1) / (period) .

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of 6.65×106 m/???? away from the Earth emits light with a wavelength of 5.13×10−
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is 5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m.

Explanation:

Given that,

The actual wavelength of the hydrogen atom, \lambda_a=5.13\times 10^{-7}\ m

A hydrogen atom in a galaxy moving with a speed of, v=6.65\times 10^6\ m/s

We need to find the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom. The speed of galaxy is given by :

v=c\times \dfrac{\lambda_o-\lambda_a}{\lambda_a}

\lambda_o is the observed wavelength

\lambda_o=\dfrac{v\lambda_a}{c}+\lambda_a\\\\\lambda_o=\dfrac{6.65\times 10^6\times 5.13\times 10^{-7}}{3\times 10^8}+5.13\times 10^{-7}\\\\\lambda_o=5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m

So, the observed wavelength on Earth from that hydrogen atom is 5.24\times 10^{-7}\ m. Hence, this is the required solution.

Suppose a sound wave and an electromagnetic wave have the same frequency. Which has the longer wavelength? 1. the electromagneti
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1. the electromagnetic wave.

Explanation:

Mathematically,

wavelength = velocity ÷ frequency

A mechanical wave is a wave that is not capable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum. Mechanical waves require a medium in order to transport their energy from one location to another. A sound wave is an example of a mechanical wave. Sound waves are incapable of traveling through a vacuum.

Electromagnetic waves of different frequency are called by different names since they have different sources and effects on matter, increasing frequency decreases wavelength.

Sound waves (which obviously travel at the speed of sound) are much slower than electromagnetic waves (which travel at the speed of light.)  

Electromagnetic waves are much faster than sound waves and If the Velocity of the wave increases and the frequency is constant, the wavelength also increases.

Heat energy moves:_______.
steposvetlana [31]

c) only from warmer areas to colder areas.

The second principle of thermodynamics states that heat can only flow from a hotter body to a cooler one. Specifically, Clausius statement says that is not possible for heat to move by itself from a lower temperature body to a higher temperature body.
