What is the frequency of a wave when it has a wavelength of 2.17 m and is travelling across a rope at a speed of 31 m/s? a 10.1 Hz
b 14.3 Hz
c 11.7 Hz
d 16.2 Hz

A wave oscillating on a string has a wavelength of 0.25 m and a frequency of 1.85 Hz. What is the speed of this wave?

a. 1.210 m/s
b. 2.050 m/s
c. 0.2915 m/s
d. 0.4625 m/s

i) b. 14.3 Hz

ii) d. 0.4625 m/s

Explanation:

f = c / λ

f = frequency

c = speed

λ = wavelength

first question:

the given values,

λ = 2.17 m

c = 31 m/s

f = c / λ

f = 31 / 2.17

f = 14.28

∴ f = 14.3 Hz

second question:

given,

λ = 0.25 m

f = 1.85 Hz

f = c / λ

rearranging,

c = f × λ

c = 1.85 × 0.25

c = 0.4625

∴ c = 0.4625 m/s

a high pressure system is a dense air mass that is usually cooler and drier than the surrounding air. a low pressure system is a less dense air mass that is usually wetter and warmer than the surrounding air.

in general, areas that experience high atmospheric pressure also experience fair weather. low pressure systems can cause the formation of clouds and storms. air usually flows from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure..

i had this question and the answer was 3.15 miles.

martina travels from school to her mom's office. from there, she walks to school. after school, she walks to the library and then to a friends house before finally ending back at home. find martina's total distance traveled.

a) 0 miles  

b) 0.4 miles  

c) 1 mile  

d) 3.15 miles
