Answer:
Wave speed = 50 m
Explanation:
Given
Wavelength = 5 m
Frequency = 10 Hz = 10
wave speed = ?
We know that all waves have same relationship among wavelength λ, frequency f and speed v , which is given by
v = fλ
Therefore wave speed = 10 x 5 m = 50 m
<u>Answers</u>
Question 1
After adding the two numbers together, you will find a number. To determine the number of significant figures, count the digits from right to left. The zeros on the left end and the right end are not significant. The zeros between the non-zero digits are significant.
Question 2
A mete stick is shorter than the student. So by using it, she will be force to take the measurements twice then add then together to get her height. This increases the chances of making errors. To improve the accuracy she should change the measuring instrument and use a tape measure. This will allow her to make only one measurement.
Question 3
Volume = length × width × height
= 105 × 75 × 80.5
= 633,937.5 cm³
In scientific notation;
633,937.5 cm³ = 6.339375 × 10⁵ cm³
