Question

Two waves approaching each other with a velocity of 16 and frequency and the distance between two consecutive nodes is

Answer 1

Explanation:

Given Two waves approaching each other with a velocity of 16 m/s and frequency n. The distance between two consecutive nodes is

• We know that distance between consecutive nodes is given by N = λ / 2
• We know that λ = V/n where v is the velocity and n is its frequency.
• Now distance between nodes = V/2 n
•                                                  = 16/2 n
•                                                  = 8/n

So distance between two consecutive nodes will be 8/n where n is the frequency of the waves.
