A child sits on a dock and notices that 8 wavelengths pass the end of the dock in 4 seconds. What is the
frequency of the waves passing the dock?

Respuesta :

Saumie
The frequency of the waves are 0,5
This is because the frequency of the wave is calculated by dividing the speed by the wavelength.

The frequency will be "2 Hz".

Given values are:

Number of passed waves,

  • 8

Time taken,

  • 4 sec

The frequency will be:

→ [tex]F = \frac{n}{t}[/tex]

By substituting the values,

        [tex]= \frac{8}{4}[/tex]

        [tex]= 2 \ Hz[/tex]

Thus the above answer is right.
