Waves Flashcards
1
Q
Whats the equation linking wave speed frequency and wavelength
A
wavespeed (m/s) = Frequency (Hz) X wavelength (m)
2
Q
what’s the equation linking frequency, 1 and period
A
frequency (Hz) = 1/period (s)
3
Q
what’s the equation linking refractive index, sin angle of incidence and sin angle of refraction
A
refractive index = sin angle of incidence / sin angle of refraction
4
Q
what’s the equation linking sin critical angle, 1 and refractive index
A
sin critical angle = 1 / refractive index
