- What intensity level does the sound in the preceding problem correspond to?arrow_forwardA 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?arrow_forwardConsider two wave functions that differ only by a phase shift, y1(x,t)=Acos(kxt) and y2(x,t)=Acos(kxt+) . Use the trigonometric cosu+cosv=2cos(uv2)cos(u+v2) and cos()=cos() to find a wave equation for the wave resulting from the superposition of the two waves.

- 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.

In the previous section, we stated that a cosine function could also be used to model a simple harmonic mechanical wave. Check if the wave y(x,t)=0.50mcos(0.20m1x4.00s1t+10) is a solution to the wave equation. Any disturbance that complies with the wave equation can propagate as a wave moving along the x-axis with a wave speed v. It works equally well for waves on a string, sound waves, and electromagnetic waves. This equation is extremely useful. For example, it can be used to show that electromagnetic waves move at the speed of light.arrow_forward
