<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

The frequency stays the same and the wavelength increases.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Sound waves are a type of mechanical wave which requires a material medium for transmission. The transmission of such waves occurs as a result of vibration of particles in the material medium. The faster the vibration of the particles the higher the speed of the sound waves.</u></em>
  • <em><u>When a sound enters a new medium where the sound travels faster, it means the vibration of particles is high, and the wavelength of the waves increases which means the speed of the wave has increased. The frequency on the other hand will remain constant.</u></em>

The frequency doesn't change. If the wavespeed increases, then the wavelength must also increase ... It's just the distance the wave travels during each complete wiggle.

How do you find the change in potential energy
ratelena [41]

P.E = mgh

This is the formula for potential energy.

This is where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

All you have to do is multiply all these numbers together.

How are scientists monitoring and studying the effects on the herring?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:In the decades prior to 1993 there was a robust Pacific herring population in Prince William Sound (PWS). Not only are these forage fish a key link in the complex food web of PWS, but they supported a lucrative early-season commercial fishery that brought the communities of the Sound to life each spring. By 1994, that fishery was closed and only briefly reopened for two years in the late 1990s. The current, approximately 10,000-ton biomass, is tiny compared to the peak value of 130,000 tons or the long-term average prior to the collapse of around 65,000 ton.
