3.4 during this wave motion the compression to compression distance is 10 m and take 5 s to move past the same point.
3.4.1 what s the wavelength of the wave?
3.4.2 what is the speed of the wave.
sorry this is another question
3.4.1 The wavelength of the wave can be found using the formula:
wavelength = speed / frequency
Since the frequency cannot be determined from the given information, we can rearrange the formula to find the frequency first:
frequency = 1 / time period
The time period is given as 5 s. Therefore,
frequency = 1 / 5 = 0.2 Hz
Now we can find the wavelength using the speed of the wave. However, we still need the speed of the wave to calculate it.
3.4.2 The speed of the wave can be determined using the formula:
speed = wavelength × frequency
Using the information given in the problem, the compression to compression distance is 10 m. Therefore,
wavelength = 10 m
Plugging in the calculated frequency of 0.2 Hz, we can determine the speed:
speed = 10 m × 0.2 Hz = 2 m/s
Therefore, the wavelength of the wave is 10 m and the speed of the wave is 2 m/s.
