Answer:
Answer:
Speed of the wave in the string will be 3.2 m/sec
Explanation:
We have given frequency in the string fixed at both ends is 80 Hz
Distance between adjacent antipodes is 20 cm
We know that distance between two adjacent anti nodes is equal to half of the wavelength
So \frac{\lambda }{2}=20cm
2
λ
=20cm
\lambda =40cmλ=40cm
We have to find the speed of the wave in the string
Speed is equal to v=\lambda f=0.04\times 80=3.2m/secv=λf=0.04×80=3.2m/sec
So speed of the wave in the string will be 3.2 m/sec
How do you find instantaneous velocity
Select a point on a distance-time curve graph. Draw a tangent to the curve at that point. Tangent -> hypotenuse of right angled triangle. Opp/adjacent in graph units is vel at that point -> in distance and/or time
Sound spreads through some kind of medium. Most of the time the medium is usually air. Sound can go through walls, like when you are playing really loud music and the neighbors tell you its to loud, you can't block it because it can travel through objects. Light does not need a medium to travel with. if you put a light in a room with no windows and no cracks, and you seal off the door the light can't escape that room, but if you did the same thing with sound it would travel trough the walls.
