(Indicates a review question, which means it requires only a basic understanding of the material to answer. Questions without this designation topically require integrating Or extending the concepts presented thus far.) What is the difference between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave? Give an example of each.
You may have used a sonic range finder in lab to measure the distance of an object using a clicking sound from a sound transducer. What is the principle used in this device?
Many of the topics discussed in this chapter are useful beyond the topics of mechanical waves. It is hard to conceive of a mechanical wave with sharp corners, but you could encounter such a wave form in your digital electronics class, as shown below. This could be a signal from a device known as an analog to digital converter, in which a continuous voltage signal is converted into a discrete signal or a digital recording of sound. What is the result of the superposition of the two signals?
A given crest of a water wave requires 5.2 s to travel between two points on afishing pier located 19 m apart. It is noted in a series of waves that 20 crests passthe first point in 17s. What is the wavelength of the wave? (A diagram would help)
IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE DRAW AN ILLSUTRATION OF THIS PROBLEM. I need to study the illsutration more than the answer please. The non-attached end of a horizontal rope is oscillated vertically with a frequency of 8Hz. The rope sustains a tension of 78 N. If the linear density of the rope is 360g/m, determine the following:a. the speed and wavelength of the resulting waveb. the speed and wavelength of the wave if the frequency were increased to 10 Hz

Figure 2 shows four different waves on a string: A, B, C and D. The horizontal line on each of them has the same length and scale representing time in seconds. Type or mark the wave that has the highest frequency. The results of all problems should be expressed in SI units, unless the problem tells you indicate in other units.
