Why do waves with high frequencies have short wavelengths

Physics
2 answers:
dalvyx [7]3 years ago

Answer: because  ν = velocity/λ where ν and λ are the frequency and wavelegth of the wave.

Explanation: In order to explain this problem we have to consider the relationship between frequency and wavelengths which  are related by the velocity of the wave as follows ν*λ=v where ν and λ are the frequency and wavelegth of the wave. These parameters have an inverse proportionality.

Then, ν = velocity/λ

Answer:

The relationship between the wavelength and the frequency of a wave comes from the equation:

v = λ*f

Where v is the velocity of the wave, λ is the wavelength and f is the frequency.

So if we keep the velocity constant, you can see that if we decrease the wavelength, then the frequency must increase (to contrast the decrease in the other variable)

And the same in the other direction, if the wavelength increases, then the frequency must decrease.

So for a fixed velocity, as highest is the frequency, lower will be the wavelength.

Alla [95]

Answer:

it is 2.2 m

Explanation:

because he goes back 2.2 m so 4.4 minus 2.2 equals 2.2

Prove(show) ''T=2π√(l/g)''​
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Time period for Simple pendulum, T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}

Explanation:

The Simple Pendulum

Consider a small bob of mass m is tied to extensible string of length l that is fixed to rigid support. The bob is oscillating in the plane about verticle.

       Let \theta is the angle made by string with vertical  during oscillation.

Vertical component of the force on bob, F=-mg\sin\theta

Negative sign shows that its opposing the motion of bob.

Taking \theta as very small angle then, \sin\theta\sim\theta

F=-mg\theta    

Let x is the displacement made by bob from its mean position ,

then, \theta=\frac{x}{l}

so, F=-mg\frac{x}{l}                ........(1)

Since, pendulum is in hormonic motion,

as we know, F=-kx

where k is the constant and k=m\omega^{2}

F=-m\omega^2x                   .........(2)

From equation (1) and (2)

-m\omega^2x=-mg\frac{x}{l}

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l}}

Since, \omega=\frac{2\pi}{T}

\frac{2\pi}{T}=\sqrt{\frac{g}{l}

T=2\pi\sqrt{\frac{l}{g}}

calculate the force required to take away a flat corcular plate of radius 0.01m from the surface of water. the surface tention o
leonid [27]

Answer:

Force = 0.0047175\ N

Explanation:

Given

T = 0.075N/m --- Surface Tension

r = 0.01m --- Radius

Required

Determine the required force

First, we calculate the circumference (C) of the circular plate

C= 2\pi r

C= 2 * \frac{22}{7} * 0.01m

C= \frac{2 * 22 * 0.01}{7}m

C= \frac{0.44}{7}m

C= 0.0629 m

The applied force is then calculated using;

Force = C * T

Force = 0.0629m * 0.075N/m

Force = 0.0047175\ N
