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
0.34836 Hz
The frequency of the waves is 0.20 HZ.
Yes.
Increasing the speed of the plunger will increase the frequency of the waves.
When working with waves ... or even just talking about them ... (frequency) = (speed) divided by (wavelength) (wavelength) = (speed) divided by (frequency) (frequency) times (wavelength) = (speed)
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.
0.34836 Hz
Just divide the number of cycles (the 16 waves) by the number of seconds.
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
Mostly its wind.
-- 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
The frequency of a wave is measured in hertz (Hz). So, the number of waves created every second is equal to the frequency in hertz. E.g. If a wave has a frequency of 5 Hz, then 5 waves are created every second.
If 3 waves pass by a point every second, the frequency of the waves would be 3 Hz (Hertz), which means there are 3 wave cycles per second.
The frequency of 5 waves passing by every second is 5 hertz (Hz). This means that 5 complete waves pass a given point in one second.
Ocean waves are caused by the wind transferring its energy to the water's surface. As the wind blows across the water, it creates ripples that eventually develop into waves. These waves travel across the ocean until they reach the shore, where they break and crash onto the beach due to the shallow water depth.
