What else can I help you with?
Can you change the wavelength of waves in a ripple tank?
Yes, you can change the wavelength of waves in a ripple tank by adjusting the frequency of the wave generator. Increasing the frequency will decrease the wavelength, while decreasing the frequency will increase the wavelength of the waves produced in the tank.
What affect if any does increasing the speed of the plunger have on the wavelenght of the waves?
Increasing the speed of the plunger will result in shorter wavelength waves being produced. This is because the wavelength of a wave is inversely proportional to the speed of the wave: as the speed increases, the wavelength decreases.
When each portion of a coil spring is alternatively compressed and extended what waves is produced?
When each portion of a coil spring is alternatively compressed and extended, a longitudinal wave is produced. Longitudinal waves propagate in the same direction as the direction of the vibration of the particles of the medium.
How did the wavelength in the spring change as it moved from side to side more quickly?
I wasn't there and didn't observe the experiment. But I would take a wild guessand say that as long as the tension in the spring doesn't change, the speed ofpropagation of waves in it is constant. So if you wiggle the end faster, the wavesmust get shorter.
If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produce change?
As all EM waves do a constant speed ('c'). If the frequency increases (i.e. the waves are more frequent) the distance between the wave peaks (wavelength) must reduce. For visible light waves, this produces a 'blue shift.'
If the frequency of the waves produced by a vibrating object increases how does the wavelength of the waves produced change?
The wavelength decreases. Frequency and wavelength are inversely related.

A wave travels at 3 ms along a spring toy If the wavelength is 02 m what is the waves frequency?
Frequency = speed / wavelength = 3/0.2 = 15 Hertz

Which electromagnetic waves has the longest wavelength?
"radio waves" have longest wavelength..

What kind of waves are x rays?
Waves of extremely short wavelength produced as a result of transitions of electrons in an atom.
When is a standing wave produced?
When waves equal in wavelength and amplitude, but traveling in opposite directions, continuously interfere with each other.
Compared to the wavelength of ultraviolet waves the wavelength of infrared waves is?
The wavelength of ultraviolet waves is shorter than the wavelength of infrared waves. Ultraviolet waves have wavelengths ranging from 10 nm to 400 nm, while infrared waves have wavelengths ranging from 700 nm to 1 mm.
How does the wavelength of infrared (IR) compare with the wavelength of Ultraviolet (UV) waves?
IR waves are longer than UV waves.
