Beats.
When two sound waves of different frequency approach your ear, the alternating constructive and destructive interference causes the sound to be alternatively soft and loud - a phenomenon which is called "beating" or producing beats. The beat frequency is equal to the absolute value of the difference in frequency of the two waves.
Answer:
Angle θ = 30.82°
Explanation:
From Malus’s law, since the intensity of a wave is proportional to its amplitude squared, the intensity I of the transmitted wave is related to the incident wave by; I = I_o cos²θ
where;
I_o is the intensity of the polarized wave before passing through the filter.
In this question,
I is 0.708 W/m²
While I_o is 0.960 W/m²
Thus, plugging in these values into the equation, we have;
0.708 W/m² = 0.960 W/m² •cos²θ
Thus, cos²θ = 0.708 W/m²/0.960 W/m²
cos²θ = 0.7375
Cos θ = √0.7375
Cos θ = 0.8588
θ = Cos^(-1)0.8588
θ = 30.82°
"Frequency" just means "often-ness" ... how often something happens.
It's always expressed as
<em>(number of happenings) / (some period of time) .</em>
Transverse wave as the wave is going up and down no compressions
