Rocket Raccoon from Guardians of the Galaxy shoots a light ray at Thanos with a velocity of 3.0 x 10 m/s and a frequency of 4.8 x 10-Hz. What is the wavelength of Rocket Raccoon's light ray? What is the frequency of Luke Skywalker's lightsaber if the speed of light has a wavelength of 6.4 x 10 4 m? What is the frequency of a wave if its wavelength is 3.6 x 10 m and its velocity is 3.0 x 10 m/s? Dr. Banner was exposed to gamma wave radiation with a wavelength of 1 x 10-11m and a frequency of 1 x 1019HZ. What is the velocity of the gamma radiation that created the HULK? Superman was summoned to defeat Godzilla and did so by using his laser vision. If the laser had a speed of 3.0x10°m/s and a frequency of 1x10 Hz, what would the wavelength of Superman's laser vision be?

How do wave effects depend on the size of the object with which the wave interacts? For example, why does sound bend around the corner of a building while does not?
Why did the early Hubble Telescope photos of Cornet Ison approaching Earth show it to have merely a fuzzy coma around it, and not the pronounced double tail that developed later (see below)? Figure 16.21. (credit of work by NSA, ESA J.-Y Li (Planetary Science Institute), and the Hubble Comet ISON Imaging Science Team)
Jack and Jill go for a walk along an abandoned railroad track. Jack puts one ear next to a rail, while Jill, 200 m away, taps on the rail with a stone (Figure 6.55). How much sooner does Jack hear the sound through the steel rail than through the air?
(a) Two microwave frequencies are authorized for use in microwave ovens: 900 and 2560 MHZ. Calculate the wavelength at each. (b) Which frequency would produce smaller hot spots in foods due to interference effects?
Police radar detects the speed of a car (Fig. P38.15) as follows. Microwaves of a precisely known frequency are broadcast toward the car. The moving car reflects the microwaves with a Doppler shift. The reflected waves are received and combined with an attenuated version of the transmitted wave. Beats occur between the two microwave signals. The beat frequency is measured. (a) For an electromagnetic wave reflected back to its source from a mirror approaching at speed v, show that the reflected wave has frequency f=c+vcvf where f is the source frequency. (b) Noting that v is much less than c, show that the beat frequency can be written as fbeat = 2v/. (c) What beat frequency is measured for a car speed of 30.0 m/s if the microwaves have frequency 10.0 GHz? (d) If the beat frequency measurement in part (c) is accurate to 5.0 Hz, how accurate is the speed measurement?
The 300-m-diameter Arecibo radio telescope pictured in Figure 27.28 detects radio waves with a 4.00 cm average wavelength. (a) What is the angle between two just-resolvable point sources for this telescope? (b) How close together could these point sources be at the 2 million light year distance of the Andromeda galaxy?
A train sounds its horn as it approaches an intersection. The horn can just be heard at a level of 50 dB by an observer 10 km away, (a) What is the average power generated by the horn? (b) What intensity level of the horn's sound is observed by someone waiting at an intersection 50 in from (lie train? Treat the horn as a point source and neglect any absorption of sound by the air.
When poked by a spear, an operatic soprano lets out a 1200—Hz shriek. What is its wavelength if the speed of sound is 345 m/s?
The 305-m-diameter Arecibo radio telescope pictured in Figure 4.20 detects radio waves with a 4.00-cm average wavelength. (a) What is the angle between two just-resolvable point sources for this telescope? (b) How close together could these point sources be at the 2 million light-year distance of the Andromeda Galaxy? Figure 4.20 A 305-m-diameter paraboloid at Arecibo in Puerto Rico is lined with reflective material, making it into a radio telescope. It is the largest curved focusing dish in the world. Although D for Arecibo is much larger than for the Hubble Telescope, it detects radiation of a much longer wavelength and its diffraction limit is significantly poorer than Hubble’s. The Arecibo telescope is still very useful, because important information is carried by radio waves that is not carried by visible light. (credit: Jeff Hitchcock)
