Well, ask yourself what frequency is, not even necessarily in a mathematical sense. The frequency that something occurs is how often is happens. In a mathematical sense, frequency is just that, in terms of seconds. So the frequency in this case is 5.1/39.9s or roughly 0.128

What is the frequency of 17 waves crash onto a beach every 48.8 seconds?
0.34836 Hz
What is the frequency of the waves traveling to the shore if six waves reach the shore in 30 seconds?
The frequency of the waves is 0.20 HZ.
Does the wave frequency go up if more waves start passing a certain point every second?
Yes.
What affect if any does increasing the speed of the plunger have on the frequency of the waves?
Increasing the speed of the plunger will increase the frequency of the waves.
When working with waves frequency x equals speed?
When working with waves ... or even just talking about them ... (frequency) = (speed) divided by (wavelength) (wavelength) = (speed) divided by (frequency) (frequency) times (wavelength) = (speed)
What is the frequency of 17 waves crash onto a beach every 48.8 seconds?
0.34836 Hz
16 waves crash onto a beach every 33.1 s. What is their frequency Answer in units of Hz.?
Just divide the number of cycles (the 16 waves) by the number of seconds.
19 waves crash onto a beach every 34.9 seconds?
If 19 waves crash onto a beach every 34.9 seconds, then that would mean a wave crashed in about every 1.83 seconds. Over the course of one minute, about 33 waves would crash onto the beach.
What is the frequency of 6 waves crash that crash onto a beach every 45.3 s in units of Hz?
TIME = 1/FREQUENCY T=1/F F=1/T F=1/(45.3) i dont think the number of waves matter, frequency is dependant on time, or angular frequency which is not given F=1/T F = 2pii/w
What causes normal ocean waves that continuously crash on the beach?
Mostly its wind.
What causes the normal ocean waves that continuously crash the beach?
Mostly its wind.
How are frequency wave produced?
Please clarify what waves you are talking about. "Frequency waves" isn't very informative: every type of wave has a frequency.
What is the Hz of an ocean wave?
-- If the ocean waves lap the shore every 15 seconds then their frequency is 1/15 Hz.-- If the waves come every 30 seconds then the frequency is 1/30 Hz.-- If the waves come every minute (60 seconds) then their frequency is 1/60 Hz....etc.In general, the frequency of ocean waves, and any other waves, is1/the number of seconds between consecutive waves
What is a 5 syllable sentence to describe a beach?
Waves crash on the sandy shore
What kind of activity can you do at the beach in winter?
sit and read while listening to the gulls cry and the waves crash into the shore
How does am and FM station work?
Both AM and FM radio operate in signal waves. Picture a beach. The ocean waves on this beach come in very regularly at 1000 waves every hour exactly, and every wave is exactly 5 feet high. AM (Amplitude Modulation) and FM (Frequency Modulation) have something in common and something different. Can you guess what those things are? They're right in the names. They both have "modulation" in common. Modulation is, in a nutshell, a change. Our beach needs some sort of change in the waves to carry a message. A change is needed in order to produce a sound on a radio, and that change can be done in two different ways: Oo! Oo! Can I guess the first one? Amplitude! Amplitude is the height of our beach waves. On our beach, we notice that some of the waves are getting lower and higher than the 5 foot waves we are used to seeing. Some of them are tiny 6 inch waves and others are huge 20 foot monster waves. On an AM radio, tiny radio waves will produce a small sound and the high radio waves produce a loud sound. The waves always come in 1000 waves per hour (or frequency) on AM Beach, and a radio set to receive a certain station will pick up only a certain frequency of waves. Let's relax on FM beach. Again, normally we have exactly 1000 waves per hour and exactly 5 foot swells. Now we notice that the waves are coming in more frequently or less frequently than 1000 per hour. Sometimes 900 waves per hour and sometimes up to 1100 waves per hour. But the waves are always 5 feet tall. Now we've changed or modulated the frequency. A lower frequency will produce a small sound in FM radio, and a higher frequency will produce a louder sound. AM has the advantage of a larger transmission distance, and FM has the advantage of more clarity.
A boat at anchor is rocked by waves whose crest are 40m apart and whose speed is 10ms these waves reach the boat once every?
You are supposed to use the basic formula for waves: speed = wavelength x frequency. In this case, you have to solve for frequency. (The period is the reciprocal of the frequency.)
