Assessment (1)
1- A wave has a frequency of 300 Hz and travels a distance, 100 m, in 0.5 s. a. What is the speed of the wave? b. What is the wavelength of the wave? c. What is the period of the wave? d. If the frequency was changed to 400 Hz, what would be the new wavelength and period? 2- A sonar signal of frequency 106 Hz has a wavelength of 1.5 mm in water. a. What is the speed of the signal in water? b. What is its period in water? 3- Water waves in a shallow dish are 6 cm long. At one point, the water moves up and down at a rate of 4.8 oscillations/s. a. What is the speed of the water waves? b. What is the period of the water waves? 4- Michal and Alfred are resting on an offshore raft after a swim. They estimate that 3 m separates a trough and an adjacent crest of each surface wave on the lake. They count 12 crests that pass by the raft in 20 s. Calculate how fast the waves are moving. 5- Radio Wave AM-radio signals are broadcast at frequencies between 550 kHz and 1600 kHz and travel 3108 m/s. a. What is the range of wavelengths for these signals? b. FM frequencies range between 88 MHz (megahertz) and 108 MHz and travel at the same speed. What is the range of FM wavelengths? 6- A 1.2 m wave travels 11.2 m to a wall and back again in 4 s. What is the frequency of the wave?
