What else can I help you with?
How does changing the frequency affect the wave speed?
The speed of a wave doesn't depend on its frequency.
How do you calculate the frequency of a wave?
Divided the wave's speed by its wavelength.
If 100 cycles of sine wave in 10 sec. the sine would have a?
frequency of 10 hertz
If a wave has frequency of 20 Hz what is the period of the wave?
.05 seconds
A radio wave has a wavelength of 0.3 m and travels at a speed of 300000000 ms. What is the frequency of this wave?
The frequency is 1000000000 Hz.
If you count 5 crests passing a certain point in 5 seconds what would the wave frequency be?
The wave frequency would be 1 Hz. This is because 5 crests passing a point in 5 seconds indicates that one crest passes the point every second. Since frequency is measured in cycles per second (Hz), the frequency of the wave would be 1 Hz.
Can measuring a crest tell you that a wave has high frequency?
No, measuring a crest alone cannot definitively tell you that a wave has high frequency. Frequency is the number of crests passing a given point in a unit of time, so you would need to measure the time it takes for multiple crests to pass to determine the frequency.
As you sit on a dock you notice a wave crest pass You count another 16 wave crests in the next eight seconds?
The frequency of the waves passing you is 2 Hz (2 cycles in 1 second) since you counted 16 wave crests in 8 seconds.
The distance between successive crests or troughs determines wave?
The distance between successive crests or troughs in a wave is called the wavelength. Wavelength is a key characteristic of a wave and is inversely related to the frequency of the wave. It is measured in meters.
What is the frequency of a wave if 3 crests pass in 6 seconds?
The frequency of the wave is 0.5 Hz. This is calculated by dividing the number of crests (3) by the time it takes for them to pass (6 seconds).
How much time is there between two wave crests?
The time between two wave crests is the period of the wave, typically measured in seconds. It is calculated as the inverse of the frequency of the wave, which is the number of wave crests passing a fixed point per second.
What is the frequency for 10 wave crest in the next 15 seconds?
To find the frequency, divide the number of wave crests (10) by the total time (15 seconds): Frequency = 10 wave crests / 15 seconds = 0.67 Hz or 2/3 Hz.
What is the wavelength of wave if the distance between two consecutive crests is L?
The wavelength of a wave is equal to the distance between two consecutive crests. So, the wavelength of a wave with a distance between two consecutive crests of L would be L.
If you use an oscilloscope to measure the distance between crests of a soundwave what property of the wave are you measuring?
You are measuring wavelength or frequency , which may also be used to determine the amount of energy a wave has because in light waves the higher the frequency the more energy the wave carries
What is the frequency of a 10 wave crest in 15 seconds?
The frequency of a 10 wave crest in 15 seconds would be 0.67 Hz. This is calculated by dividing the number of wave crests (10) by the time taken (15 seconds).
What is number of wave crests or troughs that pass one place each second?
That's the wave's frequency.
How fast is a wave moving if it has a frequency of 10 Hz and there are 4 meters between crests?
The wave speed can be calculated using the formula: speed = frequency x wavelength. Given the frequency of 10 Hz and a wavelength of 4 meters between crests, the speed of the wave would be 40 m/s.
