Question

I have my exam monday I need some help!

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

If the passage of the waves is one crest every 2.5 seconds, then that is the frequency of the wave, f.

The distance between the 2 crests (or troughs) is the wavelength, λ.

We want the velocity of this wave. The equation that relates these 3 things is

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$ and filling in:

$2.5=\frac{v}{2.0}$ so

v = 2.5(2.0) and

v = 5.0 m/s
