4. a student produces a wave in a flexible spring stretched along a tabletop by shaking one end of the spring at a frequency of 2.0 hertz. determine the wavelength of the wave produced in the spring.

4. a student produces a wave in a flexible spring stretched along a tabletop by shaking one end of the spring at a frequency of 2.0 hertz. determine the wavelength of the wave produced in the spring.

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Count number of waves

There are 3 complete waves in a length of 4.5 meters.

Step2: Calculate wavelength

Wavelength $\lambda=\frac{4.5}{3}$ meters.

Answer:

1.5 m
