The distance between two successive minima of a transverse wave is 2.28 m. Five crests of the wave pass a given point along the direction of travel every 11.4 s. (a) Find the frequency of the wave. Hz (b) Find the wave speed. m/s
The distance between two successive minima of a transverse wave is 2.20 m. Five crests of the wave pass a given point along the direction of travel every 14.2 s. (a) Find the frequency of the wave. Hz (b) Find the wave speed. m/s
The distance between two successive minima of a transverse wave is 2.72 m. Five crests of the wave pass a given point along the direction of travel every 16.1 s. (a) Find the frequency of the wave. _________ Hz (b) Find the wave speed. _________ m/s
For a certain transverse wave, the distance between two successive crests is 1.20 m and eight crests pass a given point along the direction of travel every 13.50 s. Calculate the wave speed.
The frequency of a wave increases. If the speed of the wave remains constant, what happens to the distance between successive crests? A. The distance between successive crests remains constant. B. The distance between successive crests decreases. C. The distance between successive crests increases.
6. One ----------------- equals the distance between two successive wave crests or troughs. 7. --------------------- (Hertz) equals the number of waves that passes a given point per second.
A person fishing from a pier observes that 3 wave crests pass by in 9.8 s and estimates the distance between two successive crests to be 4.7 m. The timing starts with the first wave crest and ends with the last. What is the speed of the wave?
A woman is standing in the ocean, and she notices that after a wave crest passes by, five more crests pass in a time of 34.2 s. The distance between two successive crests is 39.5 m. What is the wave's (a) period, (b) frequency, (c) wavelength, and (d) speed?
In watching a transverse wave go by, a woman notes that 20 crests go by in a time of 7.6 s. If she measures the distance between two successive crests to be 0.6 m and if the first and the last points that pass her are crests, what is the speed of the wave? A) 0.24 m/s B) 0.4 m/s C) 8.0 x 10^-2 m/s D) 1.5 m/s
A sound wave in air has a frequency of 485 Hz. If the crests of the wave are 0.701 m apart, what is the speed of the wave?
