7. Waves moving on a lake have a speed of 2.7 m/s and a distance of 1.5 m between adjacent crests.
(a) What is the frequency of the waves? ____ HZ
(b) Find the period of the wave motion? ______S

Explanation / Answer

Answers for 1 and 2: 1 and 2. Equation: E = hf h = constant = 6.63E-34 f = frequency (same for both 1 and 2) = 5.00E14 E = (6.63E-34)(5.00E14) = 3.3E-19 J
