A wave along a guitar string has a frequency of 440 Hz and wavelength of 1.5 m What is the speed of the wave?
since v=f(lambda), where v is the speed in metres per second, f is the frequency in hertz and lambda the wavelength in metres , for this question, v= 440 x 1.5=660m/s
A wave along a guitar string has a frequency of 440Hz and a wave length of 1.5m what is the speed of the wave?
v = f h, h = lambda = wavelength. f = frequency in Hz v = velocity therefore, v = 1.5 * 440 (the units of v in this case are meters per second).
How far does the frequency of 1000 Hz travel in one second?
That depends upon what the 1000 Hz is, along with the medium through which the 1000 Hz is traveling. The speed of most waves is not dependent on frequency. If that is 1000 Hz of electromagnetic radiation, then its speed (in a vacuum) is approx 3x108 m/s meaning in 1 second it travels approx 3x108 m or approx 186000 miles. It travels at this speed regardless of the frequency. If it is sound in air at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, then its speed is approx 343 m/s so in 1 second it travels 343 m. Through solid objects, sound travels much faster.
What is the frequency of the waves if the waves along the shore are 10 seconds apart?
Frequency = 1/period = 1/10 sec = 0.1 Hz.
How do you make a cumalative frequency?
Hi im 15 n i am doing my maths coursework which requires me to make a few cumulative frequency curves. Basically all you do is add the frequency as you go along. for example if the frequencies were: 4 5 2 3 then the cumulative frequency would be 4 9 11 14 You would then use this by plotting it along the y axis. There is a little more but that's mainly what u need to know to get started.
A periodic longitudinal wave that has a frequency of 24.0 Hz travels along a coil spring. If the distance between successive compression is 0.485 What is the speed of the wave?
Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (24/sec) x (0.485) = 11.64 (same unit as the 0.485)/sec
What is the formula for finding the frequency of a wave?
The wavelength of a wave is calculated using the formula: Wavelength = speed of the wave divided by the frequency of the wave. For radio waves and other wireless signals as well as the speed a signal travels along a wire, the speed of the wave is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second (the speed of light).
How do you find wavelength of a wave?
The speed of a wave equals the frequency times the wavelength (speed = frequency x wavelength). Therefore, the wavelength would equal the speed divided by the frequency. Also, the speed of a wave in a vacuum is the speed of light, c, which is a constant.
Waves with a frequency of 2.0 hertz are generated along a string The waves have a wavelength of 0.50 meters The speed of the waves along the string is?
v=f*wavelength v=2*.5 v=1 m/s
A sinusoidal wave is traveling along a rope The oscillator that generates the wave completes 40 vibrations in 30s Also a given maximum travels 425cm along the rope in 10s What is the wavelength?
Wavelength = (speed) divided by (frequency)Speed = 425/10 = 42.5 cm/secFrequency = 40/30 = 4/3 Hz.Wavelength = 42.5 / (4/3) = 42.5 x (2/3) = [28 and 1/3] cm.
How do frequency change the pitch of a sound?
Pitch represents the perceived fundamental frequency of a sound. It is one of the three major auditory attributes of sounds along with loudness and timbre.
How does Ultraviolet light work?
UV light is the same as any other kind of light or radiation along the spectrum from radioactive waves to radio waves. The difference between them is their wavelength and fequency. The longer the wavelength, the less the frequency. UV light is high-frequency short-wavelength light, just a bit more high-frequency than the highest-frequency visible light, which is violet. How does light work? Well, even physicists aren't quite sure.
Moving along the electromagnetic spectrum from radio waves to gamma rays frequency increases so wavelength?
The wavelength decreases.The speed of light is the speed of all electromagnetic radiation (such as radio waves, light waves, gamma rays, etc.) in vacuum.The speed of light (c) is a physical constant with the exact value of 299,792,458 m/s.speed of light = frequency x wavelengthso when frequency increases, wavelength decreases .
How does the frequency of a gamma wave change as the wavelength decreases?
For any electromagnetic wave, from the highest gamma wave to the lowest radiowave, the product of (frequency) times (wavelength) is always the 'speed of light'in whatever substance the waves happen to be waving along at the moment.So if the wavelength of any of them should decrease, for whatever reason, itsfrequency would have to increase, in order to keep the product constant.
A wave is traveling along a thick rope tied to a thin rope which of these three wave characteristics does not undergo change- speed frequency or wavelength?
I'm not sure if this is right, but I think that it is frequency, because it is independent of mass.
Which equation shows how frequency is related to velocity and wavelength?
No suitable equation appears on the list of choices that you posted along with the question.
