1.5 Hz\text{1.5 Hz}

Step-by-step solution

6 steps

Here are the solutions for both parts:

10d i)
Given:
Frequency f=60 Hzf = 60 \, \text{Hz}
Wavelength λ=0.6 cm\lambda = 0.6 \, \text{cm}

  1. Convert the wavelength from centimeters to meters.

    λ=0.6 cm=0.6100 m=0.006 m\lambda = 0.6 \, \text{cm} = \frac{0.6}{100} \, \text{m} = 0.006 \, \text{m}
  2. Use the wave speed formula V=fλV = f \lambda.

    V=(60 Hz)×(0.006 m)V = (60 \, \text{Hz}) \times (0.006 \, \text{m})
  3. Calculate the wave speed.

    V=0.36 m/sV = 0.36 \, \text{m/s}

    The wave speed is 0.36 m/s\boxed{\text{0.36 m/s}}.


    10d ii)
    Given:
    Wavelength λ=20 cm\lambda = 20 \, \text{cm}
    Wave speed V=0.3 m/sV = 0.3 \, \text{m/s}

  4. Convert the wavelength from centimeters to meters.

    λ=20 cm=20100 m=0.2 m\lambda = 20 \, \text{cm} = \frac{20}{100} \, \text{m} = 0.2 \, \text{m}
  5. Use the wave speed formula V=fλV = f \lambda to find the frequency ff.

    Rearrange the formula to solve for ff: f=Vλf = \frac{V}{\lambda}.

    f=0.3 m/s0.2 mf = \frac{0.3 \, \text{m/s}}{0.2 \, \text{m}}
  6. Calculate the frequency.

    f=1.5 Hzf = 1.5 \, \text{Hz}

    The frequency is 1.5 Hz\boxed{\text{1.5 Hz}}.
