the frequency (in hz) of these vibrations if the car moves at 24.2 m/s is 605 HZ .
Calculation :
frequency = [tex]\frac{number of contacts}{second}[/tex]
frequency = [tex]\frac{24.2 m/s}{1}*100cm*\frac{1}{4cm}[/tex]
= 605 HZ
Frequency describes the number of waves passing through a particular location in a particular time. So if the wave takes 1/2 second to travel, the frequency is 2 per second. If it takes 1/100th of an hour, the frequency is 100 per hour.
Frequency is the number of occurrences of a repeating event per unit time. ... sometimes called time-frequency for clarity,
