Human hearing typically ranges from about 20 Hz to 20 000 Hz. A tone of 10 000 Hz is therefore:
Refraction of a wave at a boundary occurs because:
A longitudinal wave in air has frequency 250 Hz and wavelength 1.36 m. Its speed is about:
A water wave travels at 2.0 m/s and has wavelength 0.50 m. Its frequency is:
Reflection of a wave at a flat boundary follows which rule?
A wave pulse travels 30 m in 5 s. Its speed is:
If you double the frequency of a wave while keeping its speed constant, the wavelength:
The relationship v = f × ? links wave speed v, frequency f and wavelength ?. If a wave has wavelength 2.0 m and frequency 4 Hz, its speed is:
Sound travels faster in warm air than in cold air mainly because:
Which of these can be polarised?
Which of the following is an example of a longitudinal wave?
