Chapter 5, Problem 96A

a.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The longest wave from the given options needs to be identified.

Concept introduction:

Wavelength of a wave is basically the distance between two consecutive crest and troughs. If the distance between crests and troughs is less, the wave will have a short wavelength.

Answer to Problem 96A

4 - Longest wave

Chemistry: Matter and Change, Chapter 5, Problem 96A , additional homework tip  1

Explanation of Solution

The wave number 4 represents the longest wave because the distance between two crests and two troughs is maximum on xaxis. Since it is known that wavelength is the distance between two consecutive crests and troughs thus, wave number 4 will be the longest wave.

b.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The wave with greatest frequency needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Frequency is defined as number of times a wave passes through a point in 1 sec.

Answer to Problem 96A

3 - Greatest frequency

Chemistry: Matter and Change, Chapter 5, Problem 96A , additional homework tip  2

Explanation of Solution

The greatest frequency wave is represented by option 3. It has more number of cycles in 1 sec that is more number of crests and troughs. Also, the wavelength for wave in option 3 is minimum and frequency is inversely proportional to wavelength thus, it has the greatest frequency.

c.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The waves corresponding to largest amplitude needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Amplitude is represented by height of the crest and troughs in a wave.

Answer to Problem 96A

1: Largest amplitude

Chemistry: Matter and Change, Chapter 5, Problem 96A , additional homework tip  3

Explanation of Solution

On comparing all the given waves, wave 1 has the largest amplitude. It is defined as the height of the wave measured from the highest point to the lowest point on the wave.

d.

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The wave with the shortest wavelength needs to be determined.

Concept introduction:

Wavelength of a wave is basically the distance between two consecutive crest and troughs.

Answer to Problem 96A

3 - Shortest wavelength

Chemistry: Matter and Change, Chapter 5, Problem 96A , additional homework tip  4

Explanation of Solution

If the distance between crests and troughs is less, the wave will have a short wavelength.

The wave number 3 has a minimum distance between two crests and troughs thus, it has a minimum wavelength.
