Question

The drawing shows a graph of two waves traveling to the right at the same speed. (a) Using the data in the drawing, determine the wavelength of each wave. (b) The speed of the waves is 11 m/s; calculate the frequency of each one. (c) What is the maximum speed for a particle attached to each wave? (a) ?A = ?B = (b) fA = fB = (c) vmaxA = vmaxB = It is similar to this problem. I can't seem to get the right answer for wave frequency and in turn can't get the right answer for v max http://www.physics.ohio-state.edu/~yuri/112/gw6.pdf

Explanation / Answer

The link works. a) Wavelength of A = 2m Wavelength of B = 4m b) frequency = velocity/wavelngth for A, f = 11.2/2 = 5.6 for B, f = 11.2/4 = 2.7 c) (c)
