Answer:

Frequency of the wave, f = 4 Hz

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the wave, v = 8 m/s

Wavelength of the wave, λ = 2 m

We have to find the frequency of the wave. The relationship between the frequency, wavelength and the speed of the wave is given by :

$v=f\times \lambda$

$f=\dfrac{v}{\lambda}$

$f=\dfrac{8\ m/s}{2\ m}$

f = 4 Hz or 4 s⁻¹

So, the frequency of the wave is 4 Hz. Hence, the correct option is (c) " 4 Hz".

As we know that force F makes an angle of 60 degree with X axis

so the X component is given as

$cos60 = \frac{F_x}{F}$

now we have

$F_x = F cos60$

$F_x = 0.50 F$

Similarly we know that force F makes an angle of 45 degree with Y axis

so the X component is given as

$cos45 = \frac{F_y}{F}$

now we have

$F_y = F cos45$

$F_y = 0.707 F$

Now for the component along z axis we know that

$F_x^2 + F_y^2 + F_z^2 = F^2$

now plug in all components

$(0.707 F)^2 + (0.50 F)^2 + F_z^2 = F^2$

$0.5 F^2 + 0.25 F^2 + F_z^2 = F^2$

$F_z^2 = F^2(1 - 0.75)$

$F_z^2 = 0.25 F^2$

$F_z = 0.5 F$

How far does light travel in the time it takes sound to travel 1 cm in air at 20°c?

kykrilka [37]

The speed of sound at $20^{\circ}C$ is approximately v=343 m/s. The distance covered by the sound wave is
$s=1 cm=0.01 m$
And the time it takes is
$t= \frac{S}{v}= \frac{0.01 m}{343 m/s}=2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s$

Now we want to find how far the light travels during this time. Light travels at speed $c=3 \cdot 10^8 m/s$ , therefore the distance it covers during this time is
$S=ct = (3 \cdot 10^8 m/s)(2.9 \cdot 10^{-5} s)=8700 m$
