The movement of fluid as a result of differential heating or convection. Earth convection currents refer to the motion of molten rock in the mantle as radioactive decay heats up magma, causing it to rise and driving the global scale flow of magma.

A periodic wave with wavelength 2m has a speed of 4m/s. What is the waves frequency?.
Gekata [30.6K]

The wave frequency is 2 Hz.

What is wave frequency ?

The number of waves that pass through a fixed point in a given amount of time is referred to as the wave frequency. The hertz is the SI unit for wave frequency (Hz).

f = v / w

where,

f = frequency\\v = speed \\w = wavelength

Given,

v = 4 m/s, w = 2 m

f = 4/2 \\f = 2 Hz\\

The waves frequency is 2 Hz.

A double slit that is illuminated with coherent light of wavelength 644 nm produces a pattern of bright and dark fringes on a sc
shutvik [7]

Answer:

2.77 cm

Explanation:

d = separation between the slits = 2783 x 10⁻⁹ m

\lambda = wavelength of coherent light = 644 nm = 644 x 10⁻⁹ m

D = Distance of the screen = 6 cm = 0.06 m

y_{n} = Position of nth bright fringe

Position of nth bright fringe is given as

y_{n} = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}  

for n = 2

y_{2} = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}  

y_{2} = \frac{(2)(0.06)(644\times10^{-9}))}{2783\times10^{-9}}

y_{2} = 0.0278 m

for n = 4

y_{4} = \frac{nD\lambda }{d}  

y_{4} = \frac{(4)(0.06)(644\times10^{-9}))}{2783\times10^{-9}}

y_{4} = 0.0555 m

Distance between 4th and 2nd bright fringes is given as

w = y_{4} - y_{2} = 0.0555 - 0.0278 = 0.0277 m

w = 2.77 cm
