The radius of a circular pool is 8.0 m.
Circular waves are generated at the centre of the pool.
There are 16 whole waves between the centre and the edge of the pool, and it takes 4.0 s for all 16 waves to reach the edge.
What is the wavelength and the frequency of the waves?
wavelength=0.50 m\text{wavelength} = 0.50\text{ m}wavelength=0.50 m, frequency=0.25 Hz\text{frequency} = 0.25\text{ Hz}frequency=0.25 Hz
wavelength=0.50 m\text{wavelength} = 0.50\text{ m}wavelength=0.50 m, frequency=4.0 Hz\text{frequency} = 4.0\text{ Hz}frequency=4.0 Hz
wavelength=2.0 m\text{wavelength} = 2.0\text{ m}wavelength=2.0 m, frequency=0.25 Hz\text{frequency} = 0.25\text{ Hz}frequency=0.25 Hz
wavelength=2.0 m\text{wavelength} = 2.0\text{ m}wavelength=2.0 m, frequency=4.0 Hz\text{frequency} = 4.0\text{ Hz}frequency=4.0 Hz
