What is the wavelength of a wave with a velocity of 50 ms and a frequency of 5 Hz?

10 m


What is the velocity of a wave that has a frequency of 50Hz and a wavelength of 20 meters?

Wave speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (50) x (20) = 1,000 meters.


What is isochronous and droop in generator parralel operation?

isochronous means generator zero drop during parale operationdroop means the generator at 100% load the frequency is50 HZand at no load have more tahn 5oHz eg.. generator set at 4% droop it means at no load the frequency is 104% x 50Hz.


Why is operating speed of hydro turbine low?

Low head water potential makes low water velocities. Low head turbines are then slow and big size. To accommodate that we put there generators with multiple pars of poles. That enable generator running at low speed as 187.5RPM to generate AC of 50Hz. Best Regards from: Nikola Tesla


Can 60hz machine work on 50 hz?

It may, or it may not. Some devices are specifically designed for one frequency, and won't work on another frequency. It is safest to look at the electrical specifications; if it says something like "50 or 60 Hz", it should work on both; if it says "60 Hz", then it is better not to use it, if you get your electricity at 50 Hz.add Consider an electric clock bought from US (60Hz) to New Zealand (50Hz) - it would run slower. (Of more importance is the difference in voltage.) Ignoring the voltage difference (suppose you have an 230:110 v transformer), the actual power delivered by a tool will be less, because the hysteresis curve of the iron will be different at the two frequencies. Iron is used as part of the electromagnetic motor system.
