HW for Thursday

For next class:

1.  Find an equation that relates wavelength, wave speed and frequency.  Use this for the next 2 problems.  (By the way, if you don't quite know what these things mean, look them up first.)

2.  Calculate the wavelength of a 440-Hz sound wave (which is concert A), if the speed of sound is 340 m/s.

3.  The speed of light is approximately 3 x 10^8 m/s.  What is the frequency of a 0.03-m microwave?

4.  Find definitions for mechanical wave and electromagnetic wave.
