$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 20 \ Hz}}$

Explanation:

The frequency of a wave can be found using the following formula.

$f=\frac{v}{\lambda}$

where f is the frequency, v is the velocity/wave speed, and λ is the wavelength.

The wavelength is 10 meters and the velocity is 200 meters per second.

1 m/s can also be written as 1 m*s^-1

Therefore:

$v= 200 \ m*s^{-1} \\\lambda = 10 \ m$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$f=\frac{200 \ m*s^{-1}}{10 \ m}$

Divide and note that the meters (m) will cancel each other out.

$f=\frac{200 \ s^{-1}}{10 \ }$

$f=20 \ s^{-1}$

1 s^-1 is equal to HertzTherefore, our answer of 20 s^-1 is equal to 20 Hz

$f= 20 \ Hz$

The frequency of the wave is 20 Hertz

Answer from: Quest

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

$f\alpha \frac{dp}{dt}$

⇒ $f= k \frac{dp}{dt}$

here k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

$f=\frac{dp}{dt}$

$f= \frac{d[mv]}{dt}$

$f= m\frac{dv}{dt} +v\frac{dm}{dt}$

$f=ma+v\frac{dm}{dt}$ [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
