Frequency and Wavelength

<u>Explanation:</u>

The speed of a wave changes based on frequency and wavelength. Wavelength is the distance between two corresponding points on adjacent waves. Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time. The wave speed depends upon the medium through which the wave is moving. Only an alteration in the properties of the medium will cause a change in the speed.

Speed, frequency and wavelength is related as:

speed  = frequency X wavelength

Increasing the wavelength of a wave doesn’t change its speed. That’s because when wavelength increases, wave frequency decreases. As a result, the product of wavelength and wave frequency is still the same speed.

A turtle accelerates from a stop at 3m/s/s to the South for 8s. What is the turtle’s final velocity? Show your work and include
andrey2020 [161]

He's accelerating at 3 m/s² .  That means his speed is increasing by 3 m/s every second.At the end of 8 seconds, his speed is (8 x 3 m/s)  =  24 m/s .He's been moving south for the whole 8 seconds.So at the end of that time, his velocity is                          24 m/s south .

Answer:

774.8 secs

Explanation:

distance(d)= speed(v)* time(t)

calculate speed:

refractive index = speed of light (c)/ speed of light in medium (v)

1.56 = 3*10^8*v

v=192307692.3 m/s

d = v *t

t = d/v

on substituting values:

t = 774.8 secs

You walk from your bedroom, 25m to the mailbox, and then walk 25m back to your bedroom. What is your total distance? What is you
Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Distance is 50m

Displacement is 0m

Explanation:

Distance is based on the amount of length you covered, regardless of where you end.

Displacement only considered where you started and where you ended, which is at the same spot in this case. Therefore, no displacement.
