Interference of sound

Seiche

A seiche is an oscillating standing wave in a body of water. The term seiche pronounced saysh) can be understood by the sloshing of water back and forth in a swimming pool. The same phenomenon happens on a much larger scale in vast bodies of water including bays and lakes. A seizure can happen in any enclosed or semi-enclosed body of water.

(a) What are the loudnesses in phons of sounds having frequencies of 200, 1000, 5000, and 10,000 Hz. if they are all at the same 60.0dB sound intensity level? (b) If may are all at 110 dB? (c) If they are all at 20.0 dB?
During a 4th of July celebration, an M80 firework explodes on the ground, producing a bright flash and a loud bang. The air temperature of the night air is TF=90.00F . Two observers see the flash and hear the bang. The first observer notes the time between the flash and the bang as 1.00 second. The second observer notes the difference as 3.00 seconds. The line of sight between the two observers meet at a right angle as shown below. What is the distance x between the two observers?
When sound passes from one medium to another where its propagation speed is different, does its frequency or wavelength change? Explain your answer briefly.
Six members of a synchronized swim team wear earplugs to protect themselves against water pressure at depths, but they can still hear the music and perform the combinations in the water perfectly. One day, they were asked to leave the pool so the dive team could practice a few dives, and they tried to practice on a mat, but seemed to have a lot more difficulty. Why might this be?
A 0.80-m-long tube is opened at both ends. The air temperature is 26°C. The air in the tube is oscillated using a speaker attached to a signal generator. What are the wavelengths and frequencies of first two modes of sound waves that resonate in the tube?
The wave function that models a standing wave is given as yr(x,t)=6.00cmsin(3.00m1x+1.20rad)cos(6.00s1t+1.20rad) . What are two wave functions that interfere to form this wave function? Plot the two wave functions and the sum of the sum of the two wave functions at t=1.00 s to verify your answer.
A trough with dimensions 10.00 meters by 0.10 meters by 0.10 meters is partially filled with water. Smallamplitude surface water waves are produced from both ends of the trough by paddles oscillating in simple harmonic motion. The height of the water waves are modeled with two sinusoidal wave equations, y1(x,t)=0.3msin(4m1x3s1t) and y2(x,t)=0.3mcos(4m1x+3s1t2) . What is the wave function of the resulting wave after the waves reach one another and before they reach the end of the trough (i.e., assume that there are only two waves in the trough and ignore reflections)? Use a spreadsheet to check your results. (Hint: Use the trig identities sin(uv)=sinucosvcosusinv and sin(uv)=sinucosvcosusinv
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 sound wave produced by an ultrasonic transducer, moving in air, is modeled with the wave equation s(x,t)=4.50nmcos(9.15104m1x2(5.00MHz)t) .

Find the wave function for the sound wave in the steel beam.

What decibel increase does an ear trumpet produce it its sound gathering area is 900 cm2 and the area of the eardrum is 0.500 cm2, but the trumpet only has an eficiency of 5.00% in transmitting the sound to the eardrum?
