Here are the answers to Question 5 based on the image provided:

  • Question 5 - WAVES AND SOUND

    • a)

      • Transverse waves: Waves in which the oscillations of the medium are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation. Examples include light waves and waves on a string.
      • Longitudinal waves: Waves in which the oscillations of the medium are parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Examples include sound waves and P-waves (seismic waves).
    • b)

      • (i) Calculate wave speed.
  1. Identify the given values.

            Wavelength $\lambda = 0.80 \text{ m}$  
            Frequency $f = 250 \text{ Hz}$
    
  2. Use the formula for wave speed.

            $$
            v = f\lambda
            $$
    
  3. Substitute the values and calculate.

            $$
            v = (250 \text{ Hz}) \times (0.80 \text{ m})
            $$
            $$
            v = 200 \text{ m/s}
            $$
            The wave speed is $\boxed{\text{200 m/s}}$.
    
        *   **(ii) Calculate time period.**
    
  4. Identify the given frequency.

            Frequency $f = 250 \text{ Hz}$
    
  5. Use the formula for time period.

            $$
            T = \frac{1}{f}
            $$
    
  6. Substitute the value and calculate.

            $$
            T = \frac{1}{250 \text{ Hz}}
            $$
            $$
            T = 0.004 \text{ s}
            $$
            The time period is $\boxed{\text{0.004 s}}$.
    
    *   **c)** **Resonance** is a phenomenon that occurs when an oscillating system is driven by an external force at its natural frequency, resulting in a significant increase in the amplitude of oscillations.
    
    *   **d)** Four properties common to all waves are:
        1.  **Reflection**
        2.  **Refraction**
        3.  **Diffraction**
        4.  **Interference**
