OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Will you tell me how to figure those out?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Is that 48cm on the x axis ?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Yea

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Okay Look at the wave. The length of two cycles is shown to be 48 cm.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

What would be the length of one cycle ?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Would I divide 48 by 12? Or something?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Because for number 2 I have 48cm as the wavelength

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Where earth 12 is coming from ?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

idk

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Two cycles took 48 cm One cycle takes how much ?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

24??

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

So the wavelength is 24cm

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Ok

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Let's find the period

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Okay. How would I do that?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

It is given that the wave is taking 1s to pass 6cm

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

How much time would it take to pass 24 cm ?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

So 4?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep Period is the time taken for one cycle to pass.

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Okay now frequency?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Simply take the reciprocal of the period to get the frequency Frequency = 1/period

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

.21

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

*.25

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yea

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

That's not one of my answer choices??

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Wait. It'd be .250?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

0.25 is same as 0.250

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Lol thought so. Wow I feel so dumb rn tbh

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Happens haha

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

okay #4? What would I do now? Lol Yea always to me. Never to you cuz you're a fckn smartas

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You're way too smart for your age

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Nope.

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

You knew that the wave moves by 6cm in 1s How far would it move in 5s?

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Boom. 30 lol an 5?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

1 meter = 100cm

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Simply do 100/24

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

and round it

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

4

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Yep

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

Thank you sooooo much!!!!k lol. Hugs n kisses hahha for you lol

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Hugs back Have a wonderful day !

OpenStudy (yanasidlinskiy):

You too!! Thanks lol
