2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
What is the formula for wave speed?
Consider the relationship between frequency and wavelength.
Can you give an example of a transverse wave?
Think of waves on the surface of water.
What is the formula for wave speed?
Remember the wave relationships we've covered.
True or False: Transverse waves cannot travel through fluids.
Consider the characteristics of fluids compared to solids.
A sound wave has a frequency of 200 Hz and a wavelength of 1.5 m. What is its speed in the medium? If the wave transitions into a medium where its wavelength changes to 1.2 m, what would its new frequency be?
Use the formula v = fλ for both parts.
Evaluate why the speed of sound is different in various materials, particularly in gases versus solids. Provide examples.
Think about density and molecular arrangement in solids vs. gases.
