The formula for frequency in my book says 1/T but my teacher used a different one and I can't figure out what it is. He also used a different formula for wavelength! I have a test in 9 hours!

s=f (lambda)
lambda is the upside down Y and is the wavelength
f is the frequency
and s is the wavespeed

That is the formula for frequency. The reciprocal of the period. But the relationship between frequency and wavelength is quite a different matter. It's
wavelength = propagation velocity / frequency

Equation 1:
f = 1 /T
Equation 2:
f = c / lambda
Equation 3:
lambda = c / f
where:
f = frequency
c = speed of light
lamdba = wavelength

One threat is a low delta-T turbine, frequently called an organic turbine, which makes use of a medium resembling ammonia or another refrigerant that works basically like a warmth pump, soaking up heat temperature and dissipating by using conversion to mechanical power that turns a generator and produces electric powered capacity. another device is application of the Seebeck result, called the "thermoelectric result", it is an effective state gadget which rapidly converts warmth into electrical energy. A Seebeck outcomes gadget could effectively cool the indoors on a similar time producing electrical energy. this is a miles less confusing technique and truthfully basic to create an experimental sort with a easily available gadget.
