A pendulum of length with a ball of mass
is released at an angle
away from the equilibrium point. Which of the following adjustments will result in an increase in frequency of oscillation?
A string produces the following frequencies: ,
,
, and
.
What is the fundamental frequency of this string?
What is the wavelength of a wave if its velocity is
?
A buoy is rocking in the ocean when a storm hits. From the lowest point to the highest point, the buoy goes up a total of . Over the last 20 minutes, the buoy has moved up and down a total of
.
What is the frequency of the buoy's oscillation?
The frequency of a sound wave traveling through water at is record to be
, what is the period of the wave?
If the wavelength of a light wave is , what is the period of this wave?
Waves are hitting the side of a pier in a regular fashion. During 1 minute, waves that hit the side of the pier. Calculate the period
of the waves during this time in seconds.
How does the period of a pendulum react to its length quadrupling?
