Question

The drawing shows a snapshot of two waves traveling to the right at the same speed.


(a) Rank the waves according to their wavelengths, largest first.
1
wavelength of A > wavelength of B
wavelength of A = wavelength of B
wavelength of B > wavelength of A
.. (b) Which wave, if either, has the higher frequency?
2
neither
wave B
wave A
.. (c) If a particle were attached to each wave, which particle would have the greater maximum speed as it moves up and down?
3
wave A
neither
wave B
..
Justify your answers.
4
(d) From the data in the drawing, determing the wavelength of each wave.
5 . m (wave A)
6 . m (wave B)
(e) If the speed of the waves is 15 m/s, calculate the frequency of each one.
7 . Hz (wave A)
8 . Hz (wave B)
(f) What is the maximum speed for a particle attached to each wave?
9 . m/s (wave A)
10 m/s (wave B)

Explanation / Answer

(a) Rank the waves according to their wavelengths, largest first. 1 wavelength of A = wavelength of B wavelength of A > wavelength of B wavelength of B > wavelength of A .. (b) Which wave, if either, has the higher frequency? 2 wave A neither wave B .. (c) If a particle were attached to each wave, which particle would have the greater maximum speed as it moves up and down? 3 neither wave A wave B .. Justify your answers. 4since it has less wave length so it it have higher frequency and spped (d) From the data in the drawing, determing the wavelength of each wave. 5 . m (wave A) 6 . m (wave B) (e) If the speed of the waves is 16 m/s, calculate the frequency of each one. 7 . Hz (wave A) 8 . Hz (wave B) (f) What is the maximum speed for a particle attached to each wave? 9 . m/s (wave A) 10 . m/s (wave B)
