Question

A wave travel through a distance of 60cm in 3 seconds the different between two successive crest on ware is 4cm calculate the frequency of the wave

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity of the wave (v) = distance traveled/ time=0.06/3 = 0.02 m/s

Wavelength ( l ) = distance between two successive crests or troughs= 0.04 m

Frequency is given by the relation: f=v/l

f=0.02/0.04 = 0.5 Hz
