Question
In a transverse wave, the time interval between 1st crest and 11th crest is 50 s, then the time period of wave is ____________.
Solution
The time period of a wave is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to pass a certain point.
In this case, we are given the time interval between the 1st crest and the 11th crest, which is 50 seconds. This means that 10 complete cycles of the wave (from 2nd crest to 11th crest) have passed in this time.
To find the time period of the wave, we simply divide the total time by the number of cycles.
So, the time period of the wave is 50 seconds / 10 cycles = 5 seconds per cycle.
