The term is frequency.
The frequency is the number of vibrations per unit of time or the number of waves that passes a point per unit of time.
Every crest (and every trough) represents a pass of the wave so you can count the number of crests in an intervavl of time to find the frequency as the number of crests divided by the time elapsed.
Answer:
1.19 m/s²
Explanation:
The frequency of the wave generated in the string in the first experiment is f = n/2l√T/μ were T = tension in string = mg were m = 1.30 kg weight = 1300 g , μ = mass per unit length of string = 1.01 g/m. l = length of string to pulley = l₀/2 were l₀ = lent of string. Since f is the second harmonic, n = 2, so
f = 2/2(l₀/2)√mg/μ = 2(√mg/μ)/l₀ (1)
Also, for the second experiment, the period of the wave in the string is T = 2π√l₀/g. From (1) l₀ = 2(√mg/μ)/f and from (2) l₀ = T²g/4π²
Equating (1) and (2) we ave
2(√mg/μ)/f = T²g/4π²
Making g subject of the formula
g = 2π√(2√(m/μ)/f)/T
The period T = 316 s/100 = 3.16 s
Substituting the other values into , we have
g = 2π√(2√(1300 g/1.01 g/m)/200 Hz)/3.16
g = 2π√(2 × 35.877/200 Hz)/3.16
g = 2π√(71.753/200 Hz)/3.16
g = 2π√(0.358)/3.16
g = 2π × 0.599/3.16
g = 1.19 m/s²
If im not mistaken the truck traveled 216 meters.
Answer:
The description including its issue is summarized throughout the clarification portion below.
Explanation:
- Speed would be a measurement of size. Which has only significance and therefore no path or guidance. Student says acceleration of -10m/s, therefore this assumption is incorrect because this same negative correlation indicates the path.
- In reality, this same participant defined the speed (which seems to have two very different motion of an object).
To solve this problem we must basically resort to the kinematic equations of movement. For which speed is defined as the distance traveled in a given time. Mathematically this can be expressed as

Where
d = Distance
t = time
For which clearing the time we will have the expression

Since we have two 'fluids' in which the sound travels at different speeds we will have that for the rock the time elapsed to feel the explosion will be:


In the case of the atmosphere -composite of air- the average speed of sound is 343m / s, therefore it will take


The total difference between the two times would be


Therefore 3.357s will pass between when they feel the explosion and when they hear it
