Vred(T=0˚C) = Vgreen(T=0˚C) = Vred(T=11˚C) = Vgreen(T=11˚C) = Vred(T=45˚C) = Vgreen (T=45˚C) What are your conclusions comparing the effect of the temperature and frequency on sound and light velocities? Justify your answer based on the data presented and the physics of sound and light.

A speeder tries to explain to the police that the yellow warning lights she was approaching on the side of the road looked green to her because of the Doppler shift. How fast would she have been traveling if yellow light of wavelength 575.5 nm had been shifted to green with a wavelength of 565.0 nm?

One clue used by your brain to determine the direction of a source of sound is the time delay t between the arrival of the sound at the ear closer to the source and the arrival at the farther ear.Assume that the source is distant so that a wavefront from it is approximately planar when it reaches you, and let D represent the separation between your ears. (a) If the source is located at angle u in front of you , what is in terms of D and the speed of sound v in air? (b) If you are submerged in water and the sound source is directly to your right, what is t in terms of D and the speed of sound vw in water? (c) Based on the time-delay clue, your brain interprets the submerged sound to arrive at an angle u from the forward direction. Evaluate u for fresh water at 20C.

Despite the availability of music in digital form, the compact disc, or CD, remains a popular format for music and data. On a CD (as shown), audio information is stored digitally in a series of pits and flat areas on the surface of the disc. The alternations between pits and flat areas on the surface represent binary ones and zeros to be read by the CD player and converted back to sound waves. The pits and flat areas are detected by a system consisting of a laser and lenses. The length of a string of ones and zeros representing one piece of information is the same everywhere on the disc, whether the information is near the center of the disc or near its outer edge. So that this length of ones and zeros always passes by the laser–lens system in the same time interval, the tangential speed of the disc surface at the location of the lens must be constant. According to Equation 10.10, the angular speed must therefore vary as the laser–lens system moves radially along the disc. In a typical…
