What else can I help you with?
What wavelength of ultraviolet light offers the strongest germicidal effciency?
short wavelength
What are the characteristics of sound waves?
The characteristics of a sound wave is the Amplitude, Frequency, Wavelength, time period, and velocity. The sound wave itself is a longitudinal wave that shows the rarefactions and compressions of a sound wave.
What is important about the peak wavelength of a thermal radiation spectrum?
The peak wavelength, is connected to the temperature of the objects. we have short peak wavelength when the temperature is high.
A wave with a short wavelength will also have a?
High frequency.
When they say Increasing wavelength Referring to spectrum do they mean short wavelengths?
increasing wavelength means shorter frequency.
How do you calculate wavelength of a sound wave?
v = fλ V/f = λ (wavelength) V = 340ms-1 340/f = λ In short you need to know the frequency of the particular sound wave to work out it's wavelength. once you know that you plug it into the above equation and you will get the wavelength of the wave.
What is determined by wavelength in sound?
The wavelength in sound determines the pitch of the sound. A shorter wavelength corresponds to a higher pitch, while a longer wavelength corresponds to a lower pitch.
As the frequency of sound waves increases the wavelength of the sound dereases.?
That's a correct statement. Although you didn't ask a question, I'll go on and add to it: The frequency and wavelength of any wave phenomenon, not only sound, change in exact inverse proportion, so that their product is constant. That product is the speed of the wave.
Do radio waves have short or long wavelength?
Short wavelength
How loud a sound is depends on the wavelength of the sound?
The loudness of a sound is typically measured in terms of intensity or amplitude, not wavelength. The wavelength of a sound wave affects its pitch, not its loudness. Sound intensity is related to the amount of energy carried by the sound wave.
Which relation is there between wavelength and height?
There is no relation between wave length and wave height. You can change the wave height independently from the wave length. Wave height tells you which amplitude the wave has. If you think of sound that means how loud it is. The wave length tells you the pitch or the frequency of this sound, that means high or low sound. Long wavelength means bass sound and short wavelength means treble sound.
What is the wavelength of sound that has a frequency of 539.8?
The wavelength of sound can be calculated using the formula: wavelength = speed of sound / frequency. Assuming the speed of sound is around 343 m/s, we can calculate the wavelength of sound with a frequency of 539.8 Hz to be approximately 0.636 meters.
What is the source if a sound's pitch is high?
The source of a high pitch sound is typically vibrations that occur at a high frequency. This can be caused by a sound wave with a short wavelength or an object vibrating quickly.
What wavelength has the highest pitch?
A shorter wavelength, such as one in the ultrasonic range, results in the highest pitch. For example, bats use ultrasonic waves for echolocation due to their high frequency and short wavelength which produces a high-pitched sound.
What is the wavelength if the frequency of sound equals 880 Hz?
That would also depend on the speed. Note that sound can go at quite different speeds, depending on the medium and the temperature. Use the formula speed (of sound) = frequency x wavelength. Solving for wavelength: wavelength = speed / frequency. If the speed is in meters / second, and the frequency in Hertz, then the wavelength will be in meters.
Does refractionand reflection effect the wavelength of sound?
No, refraction and reflection do not affect the wavelength of sound. Wavelength is determined by the frequency of sound waves in a given medium, and it remains constant as sound waves interact through these processes. Refraction and reflection can alter the direction and intensity of sound waves, but not their wavelength.
What is the relationship connecting the frequency of the sound source with the wavelength and the speed of sound in air?
The frequency of a sound source is directly related to the wavelength and the speed of sound in air through the equation: speed of sound = frequency x wavelength. As the frequency of the sound increases, the wavelength decreases, and vice versa, provided the speed of sound remains constant in the medium.
