What is the formula to calculate wave speed?

Physics
1 answer:
Kisachek [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer: WaveSpeed = Wavelength x Frequency

Explanation: Wave speed is the distance a wave travels in a given amount of time, such as the number of meters it travels per second. Wave speed is related to wavelength and wave frequency by the equation. This equation can be used to calculate wave speed when wavelength and frequency are known.

anzhelika [568]

To solve the problem, use Kepler's 3rd law : 

T² = 4π²r³ / GM 

Solved for r : 

r = [GMT² / 4π²]⅓ 

but first covert 6.00 years to seconds : 

6.00years = 6.00years(365days/year)(24.0hours/day)(6... 
= 1.89 x 10^8s 

The radius of the orbit then is : 

r = [(6.67 x 10^-11N∙m²/kg²)(1.99 x 10^30kg)(1.89 x 10^8s)² / 4π²]⅓ 
= 6.23 x 10^11m

The top of a tower much like the leaning bell tower at Pisa, Italy, moves toward the south at an average rate of 1.4 mm/y. The t
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

\omega=7.16*10^{-13}\frac{rad}{s}

Explanation:

The angular speed is given by:

\omega=\frac{v}{r}

Here v is the linear speed and r is the radius of the circular motion. The height of the tower is equal to the radius of the circular motion of the top of the tower, since is rotating about its base. We need to convert the given linear speed to \frac{m}{s}:

1.4\frac{mm}{y}*\frac{10^{-3}m}{1mm}*\frac{1y}{3.154*10^7s}=4.44*10^{-11}\frac{m}{s}

Now, we calculate the angular speed:

\omega=\frac{4.44*10^{-11}\frac{m}{s}}{62m}\\\omega=7.16*10^{-13}\frac{rad}{s}

A sled plus passenger with total mass m = 52.3 kg is pulled a distance d = 21.8 m across a horizontal, snow-packed surface for w
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since the sled plus passenger moves with constant velocity , force applied will be equal to frictional force. Let the force applied be F

a ) Frictional force = μ R = F cosφ

R = mg - F sinφ

μ(mg - F sinφ)  = F cosφ

μmg = F (μsinφ+cosφ)

F = μmg / (μsinφ+cosφ)

Work done

= F cosφ x d

= μmg x cosφ x d / (μsinφ+cosφ)

b )Work done

= 0.13 x 52.3 x 9.8 cos36.7 x 21.8 / ( 0.13 sin36.7 +cos36.7)

= 1164.61 / .87946

1324.23 J

c ) work done on the sled by friction

= - (work done by force)

= - μmg x cosφ x d / (μsinφ+cosφ)

d ) work done on the sled by friction

= - 1324.23 J

A piston of volume 0.1 m3 contains two moles of a monatomic ideal gas at 300K. If it undergoes an isothermal process and expands
seropon [69]

Answer:

the work is done by the gas on the environment -is W= - 3534.94 J (since the initial pressure is lower than the atmospheric pressure , it needs external work to expand)

Explanation:

assuming ideal gas behaviour of the gas , the equation for ideal gas is

P*V=n*R*T

where

P = absolute pressure

V= volume

T= absolute temperature

n= number of moles of gas

R= ideal gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

P=n*R*T/V

the work that is done by the gas is calculated through

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV

for an isothermal process T=constant and since the piston is closed vessel also n=constant during the process then denoting 1 and 2 for initial and final state respectively:

W=∫pdV=  ∫ (n*R*T/V) dV =  n*R*T  ∫(1/V) dV = n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)

since

P₁=n*R*T/V₁

P₂=n*R*T/V₂

dividing both equations

V₂/V₁ = P₁/P₂

W= n*R*T * ln (V₂/V₁)  = n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ )

replacing values

P₁=n*R*T/V₁ = 2 moles* 8.314 J/mol K* 300K / 0.1 m3= 49884 Pa

since P₂ = 1 atm = 101325 Pa

W= n*R*T * ln (P₁/P₂ ) = 2 mol * 8.314 J/mol K * 300K * (49884 Pa/101325 Pa) = -3534.94 J
