What causes waves to slow down: change in wave’s wavelength or change in its frequency and y?

Physics
1 answer:
Mashutka [201]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Although the wave slows down, its frequency remains the same, due to the fact that its wavelength is shorter. When waves travel from one medium to another the frequency never changes.

Pani-rosa [81]
A transverse wave is a wave where the particles in the medium move perpendicular (at right angles) to the direction of the source or its propagation (think of a snake slithering through grass) an example of a transverse wave could be a light wave. Light waves for instance don’t need a medium in order to propagate but transverse waves in general do need a medium.

Match the theory to the statement that best describes it. 1. big bang. 2. steady state. 3.osscillating universe. 4. inflation Ch
Gre4nikov [31]

Explanation :

(1) Big bang : (1) The most accepted theory on the origin of the universe.

This theory shows the expanding of the universe from high density and high-temperature states.

(2) Steady state : (3) All is the same and will always stay the same.

Steady state means that the properties of any system remain the same always.

(3) Oscillating universe : (4) Agrees with the big bang theory but insists the universe expanded much quicker.

Oscillating universe theory is the result of big bang theory.

(4) Inflation Choices : (2) it's like an inflating and deflating balloon that never stops.  

In cosmology, cosmic inflation or deflation is just the expanding and contraction of the universe.

So, the statements and the choices are related as:

               (1)-(1)

              (2)- (3)

               (3)-(4)

               (4)-(2)

A roller coaster car rapidly picks up speed as it
TiliK225 [7]
Acceleration = (change of speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (22 - 4) = 18 m/s.
Time for the change = 3 sec.

Acceleration = 18/3 = 6 m/s per second.
