Question
Transcribed Image Text:1. A periodic transverse wave is created by shaking one end of a string side to
side periodically. Ten oscillations are completed in 2.0 sec. It is known that
the wave speed is 2.0 m/s. calculate the frequency of the wave, period of the
wave, and the wavelength.
2. A periodic transverse wave is created by shaking one end of a string side to
side periodically. It is observed that the wave length is 0.1 m, and the speed
of wave is 2.0 m/s. calculate the frequency and period of the wave.
