Which of the following statements is not necessarily true regarding mechanical waves? (a) They are formed by some source of disturbance. (b) They are sinusoidal in nature. (c) They carry energy. (d) They require a medium through which to propagate. (e) The wave speed depends on the properties of the medium in which they travel.
A two-dimensional water wave spreads in circular ripples. Show that the amplitude A at a distance r from the initial disturbance is proportional to 1/r. Suggestion: Consider the energy carried by one outward-moving ripple.
Give one example of a transverse wave and another of a longitudinal wave, being careful to note the relative directions of the disturbance and wave propagation in each.
What limits the amplitude of motion of a real vibrating system that is driven at one of its resonant frequencies?
What causes waves, and how and what do they propagate?
You are given two wind instruments of identical length. One is open at both ends, whereas the other is closed at one end. Which is able to produce the lowest frequency?
How many values of amplitude are there in one wavelength of a wave, and how is the amplitude related to the energy of a wave?
To increase intensity of a wave by a factor of 50, by what factor should the amplitude be increased?
Circular water waves decrease in amplitude as they move away from where a rock is dropped. Explain why.
The Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, has the highest tides in the world. Assume in midocean and at the mouth of the bay the Moons gravity gradient and the Earths rotation make the water surface oscillate with an amplitude of a few centimeters and a period of 12 h 24 min. At the head of the bay, the amplitude is several meters. Assume the bay has a length of 210 km and a uniform depth of 36.1 m. The speed of long-wavelength water waves is given by v=gd, where d is the waters depth. Argue for or against the proposition that the tide is magnified by standing-wave resonance.
Circular water waves decrease in amplitude as they move away from where a rock is dropped. Explain why.
As shown in Figure 18.3, two pulses trawling along the same rope toward each other have the same amplitude. Draw a sketch of the rope at the instant the pulses completely overlap. FIGURE 18.3
