Question

Water waves are being generated in a ripple tank at a
rate of 5 Hz. This means that in 1 second the number of
waves passing through a fixed point is​

Answer 1

Answer:

Wave frequency is the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time. The SI unit for wave frequency is the hertz (Hz), where 1 hertz equals 1 wave passing a fixed point in 1 second.

Answer 2

Answer:

This means that 5 waves are passing through a fixed point in 1 second.

Explanation:

• The frequency of a repeating event is its number of instances per unit of time.
• As a contrast to spatial frequency, it is also sometimes referred to as temporal frequency, and as a contrast to angular frequency, it is sometimes referred to as ordinary frequency.
• The quantity of waves that pass a set location in a predetermined period of time is known as frequency.
• Therefore, if a wave passes through in half a second, the frequency is 2 per second.
• The frequency is 100 times per hour if it takes 1/100 of an hour.
• Frequency is typically expressed in hertz units.
• The frequency, abbreviated as Hz, refers to the number of waves that move across a space in a second.

5 waves pass through the fixed point in 1 second.
