Answer:
a) f=0.1 Hz ; b) T=10s
c)λ= 36m
d)v=3.6m/s
e)amplitude, cannot be determined
Explanation:
Complete question is:
Determine, if possible, the wave's (a) frequency, (b) period, (c) wavelength, (d) speed, and (e) amplitude.
Given:
number of wave crests 'n'= 5
pass in a time't' 54.0s
distance between two successive crests 'd'= 36m
a) Frequency of the waves 'f' can be determined by dividing number of wave crests with time, so we have
f=n/t
f= 5/ 54 => 0.1Hz
b)The time period of wave 'T' is the reciprocal of the frequency
therefore,
T=1/f
T=1/0.1
T=10 sec.
c)wavelength'λ' is the distance between two successive crests i.e 36m
Therefore, λ= 36m
d) speed of the wave 'v' can be determined by the product of frequency and wavelength
v= fλ => 0.1 x 36
v=3.6m/s
e) For amplitude, no data is given in this question. So, it cannot be determined.
Explanation:
It represents the direction of flow of positive charge but is treated as a scalar quantity because current follows the laws of scalar addition and not the laws of vector addition. The angle between the wires carrying current does not affect the total current in the circuit.
Answer:
V_{average} = 
, V_{average} = 2 V
Explanation:
he average or effective voltage of a wave is the value of the wave in a period
V_average = ∫ V dt
in this case the given volage is a square wave that can be described by the function
V (t) = 
to substitute in the equation let us separate the into two pairs
V_average = 
V_average = 
V_{average} =
we evaluate V₀ = 4 V
V_{average} = 4 / 2)
V_{average} = 2 V
