Question

A wave traveling on a Slink that is stretched to a total length of 2.3 m takes 3.8 seconds to travel the length of the Slinky and back again. A periodic standing wave is created in the same Slinky stretched to the same length. It contains three antinodes and four nodes. What is the frequency of the wave, in hertz?

Step 1

8 seconds to travel the length of the Slinky and back again, and the total length of the Slinky is 2.3 m, we can calculate the speed of the wave using the formula: Speed = Distance / Time Speed = 2.3 m / 3.8 s Speed ≈ 0.605 m/s Show more…
