answers to wave questions

1, 2.  See notes.

3.  200 m/s

4.  wavelength is 4 m.  Frequency is 6 Hz.

5.  3,000,000 / 340 --- that's around a million to one ratio

6.
a.  see notes
b.  wavelengths are:  2 m, 1 m, and 2/3 m
c.  frequencies are 10, 20 and 30 Hz, respectively, for n = 1, 2 and 3
d.  speeds are all constant:  20 m/s

7.  speed of light divided by 89.7 MHz.  That is 300,000,000 / 89,700,000, which works out to around 3.3 m.

8.  524 Hz and 1048 Hz
