Given data:

Wave length (λ) = 2.30 m,

Frequency     (f) = 370 Hz (waves/sec),

Determine the speed of the wave = ?

Speed of the wave is defined as "the distance a wave travels in a given time". And it is a product of <em>wavelength (λ) </em>and <em>frequency(f). </em>

An Important point to be remember here is <em>"when increasing the wave length of the wave does not increase the speed of the wave"</em> because the wave speed also depends on frequency (f), So, if the wave length increases wave speed decreases. As a result the product of wave length and frequency are same.

Mathematically,

          Wave speed = wave length × frequency

                                = 2.30 m × 370 waves/sec.

                                = 851 m/s.

<em>Speed of the wave is 851 m/s</em>

if a cat is running at a constant speed of 10km/h for 5 s, what is its average speed and what is its instantaneous speed at 4 s?
iris [78.8K]

Here a cat is running at constant speed which is given as 10 km/h for  5s

So here the average speed is defined as total distance moved in total time interval

so here it is given by

v_{avg} = \frac{distance}{time}

since

here speed of cat is constant so it will remain the same

And hence the average speed and instantaneous speed at any instant for this duration will remain the same

so here answer would be

<em>average speed = 10 km/h</em>

<em>instantaneous speed = 10 km/h</em>

What is the difference between vector and scalar ?
ddd [48]
The easiest, non-technical way to think about it is like this:

-- A scalar is a quantity that has a size but no direction.
Those include temperature, speed, cost, volume, distance, etc.

One number is all there is to know about it, and there's no way you can
add more of the same stuff to it that would cancel both of them out.

-- A vector is a quantity that has a size and also has a direction.
Those include force, displacement, velocity, acceleration, etc.

It takes more than one number to completely describe one of these.
Also, if you combine two of the same vector quantity in different ways,
you can get different results, and they can even cancel each other out.

Here are some examples.  Notice that in each of these examples,
every speed has a direction that goes along with it.  This turns the
scalar speed into a vector velocity.

If you're walking inside a bus, and the bus is driving along the road,
then your velocity along the road is the sum of your walking velocity
inside the bus plus the velocity of the bus along the road.

-- If you're walking north up the middle of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is driving north along the road at 20 miles per hour, then
your velocity along the road is 22 miles per hour north.

-- If you're walking south towards the back of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is driving north along the road at 5 miles per hour, then your
velocity along the road is 3 miles per hour north.

-- If you're walking south towards the back of the bus at 2 miles per hour
and the bus is just barely rolling north along the road at 2 miles per hour,
then your velocity along the road is zero.

--  If you're in a big railroad flat-car that's rolling north along the track
at 2 miles per hour, and you walk across the flat-car towards the east
at 2 miles per hour, then your velocity along the ground is 2.818 miles
per hour toward the northeast.

Orlov [11]

The geosphere interacts with the hydrosphere when water causes rock to erode. The atmosphere provides the geosphere with heat and energy for erosion, and the geosphere reflects the sun's energy back into the atmosphere.
