AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to calculate the frequency of the ripples produced in the ripple tank. The frequency can be calculated using the formula: **Frequency (f) = Number of complete cycles / Time taken** ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the number of complete cycles (ripples)**: - From the question, we know that 15 full ripples are produced in one second. Therefore, the number of complete cycles is 15. ...
