The distance between two crests a and b of a wave is 24cm. if there are two crests in between a and b, then the wavelength of the wave is

Sagot :

The wavelength of the wave is 23.55 rad/s.

What is a wavelength simple definition?

Wavelength is the distance between identical points (adjacent crests) in the adjacent cycles of a waveform signal propagated in space or along a wire.

Distance b/w one crest and one trough is  λ/2 and b/w two crests or two trough it is  λ.

Therefore from 2nd crest to 6th trough the total distance

                   = 4 λ +  λ /2 => 9 λ/2

that is given as:

9 λ/2 = 24 cm

λ= 16/3 cm

V = w/k => w × λ /2pi => w = 2 × 3.14 × 20 × 3/16 => 23.55 rad/s
