What factors influence the speed of a wave?

Physics
1 answer:
fiasKO [112]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: A medium is any substance or region through which a wave is transmitted. The speed of a wave is dependant on four factors: wavelength, frequency, medium, and temperature. Wave speed is calculated by multiplying the wavelength times the frequency (speed = l * f).

The simplest form of a traveling electromagnetic wave is a plane wave. For a wave traveling in the x direction whose electric fi
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

please the answer below

Explanation:

A general electromagnetic plane wave, traveling in the x direction, can be expressed in the form:

\vec{E}=E_0e^{-i(k\cdot x-\omega t)}\hat{j}\\\\\vec{B}=B_0e^{-i(k\cdot x-\omega t)}\hat{k}\\\\    (1)

1.

a. amplitudes

from (1) we can observe that E_0 and B_0 are the amplitudes.

2. frequency

3.

By replacing  (1) we obtain:

\vec{E}=E_0e^{-i(k(0)-\omega t)}\hat{j}=E_0[cos\omega t+sin\omega t]\hat{j}

4.

the wave respond to the followinf physical variables: amplitude, frequency, time and position, as we can see in (1).

hope this helps!!

Describe the process of electricity generation and the efficiency and economics of it
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The process of producing electric energy or the amount of electric energy produced by transforming other forms of energy into electrical energy; commonly expressed in kilowatt-hours (kWh) or megawatt-hours (MWh). Electric power plant efficiency η is defined as the ratio between the useful electricity output from the generating unit, in a specific time, and the energy value of the energy source supplied to the unit in the same time period.  For electricity generation based on steam turbines 65% of all prime energy is wasted as heat.  The maximum theoretical energy efficiency is defined in more detail by the Rankine cycle. For modern practical systems this is about 40% but less for older generating plant.  The efficiency falls still further if fuels with lower energy content such as biomass are used to supply the plant. The economics of power generation based on reciprocating engines depends to a large extent on the use to which the engine is to be put. The cheapest engines available are small petrol-driven engines based on car engines, which are manufactured in large numbers each year.
