Answer:
Velocity, v = 0.239 m/s
Explanation:
Given that,
The distance between two consecutive nodes of a standing wave is 20.9 cm = 0.209 m
The hand generating the pulses moves up and down through a complete cycle 2.57 times every 4.47 s.
For a standing wave, the distance between two consecutive nodes is equal to half of the wavelength.

Frequency is number of cycles per unit time.

Now we can find the velocity of the wave.
Velocity = frequency × wavelength
v = 0.574 × 0.418
v = 0.239 m/s
So, the velocity of the wave is 0.239 m/s.
<span>A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds; or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.

Till the time car is just adjacent to the bicycle we can say
distance moved by cycle = distance moved by car
Time taken by car to accelerate from rest


Time taken by cycle to accelerate

now the distance moved by cycle in time "t"

distance moved by car in same time

now make them equal



so cycle will move ahead of car for t = 5.68 s
