Use your knowledge of and experience with waves and to answer the following and show your work.
What is the frequency in Hertz (Hz) of a signal that repeats 80,000 times in a minute?
What is the period of the wave in part (a)?
Now suppose you have a composite signal (composed of many frequencies). If the frequencies range from 50 Hz to 600 Hz, what is the (analog) bandwidth?
please help me with all parts of this, make sure to double check your answer, i got it wrong, but i want to use this to study..
basic info needed is provided in picture.
A.Determine the wavelength of this wave.
B.Determine the frequency of this wave.
C.Determine the speed of this wave.
E.Determine the amplitude of this wave.
F.Determine maximum and minimum speeds of particles of the cord.
1. Record the slopes from the best fit lines for both the Thin Spring and the Thick spring. (What are the units of the slopes? They do have units! Be sure to show the units in your answer here).
2. Which spring has the graph with the greater slope, the Thin Spring or the Thick Spring? Answer in a complete sentence.
3. The slope shows the amount of displacement of the spring per amount of hanging mass. Use either the slopes or the equations from your trendlines to predict how much the spring would stretch for a 500 g (0.50 kg) mass. Do this for both the Thin and Thick Springs.
4.The Spring Constant you adjusted in lab is related to the stiffness of the spring – stiffer springs need more mass to “pull” them down the same displacement. If you increase the spring constant, what would happen to the slope (rise/run) of the graph you create? Answer in complete sentences and use your data (either graphs or the tables) as evidence.
