Suppose that water waves coming into a dock havea velocity of 1.8 m/s and a wavelength of 4.4 m.With what frequency do these waves meet thedock?Answer in units of Hz. Your answer mustbe within ‡ 3.0%

Respuesta :

Given:

Velocity of water waves = 1.8 m/s

Wavelength = 4.4 m

Let's find the frequency the water waves meet th doc.

To find the frequency, apply the formula:

[tex]f=\frac{v}{\lambda}[/tex]

Where:

v is thevelocity = 1.8 m/s

λ is the wavelength = 4.4 m

f is the frequency

Thus, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f=\frac{1.8}{4.4} \\ \\ f=0.409\text{ Hz} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the frequency is 0.409 Hz

ANSWER:

0.409 Hz.
