Demonstrate your comprehensive solution and response. 1. The siren of a police car emits a sinusoidal wave at a frequency of 300 Hz. The sound speed is 340 meters per second and the air is motionless. a.) What frequency does a listener hear if they are at rest and the siren is travelling away at 30 m/s? b.) What frequency does the listener hear if the siren is at rest and the listener is traveling away from it at 30 m/s? The siren is traveling away from the listener at a relative speed of 45 m/s, while the listener is traveling toward the siren at a relative speed of 15 m/s.

If…arrow_forwardPlease download the following worksheets, which show 4 separate grids. Each grid has two different waves (e.g., Wave and Wave B). Your goal is to draw the resulting wave (i.e., Wave C) if the two waves would have been superposed on top of each other. To do this, you'll need to add the two amplitudes (height of the Wave A and Wave B on the y-axis) at a given point on the x-axis to get the resulting one. For example, using number 3 as an example: a. At point 0 on the x axis, Wave A has an amplitude of 0, and Wave B has an amplitude of 0, so Wave C at point 0 would be 0. b. At point 4 on the x axis, Wave A has an amplitude of 6, and Wave B has an amplitude of 4, so Wave C at point 3 would have an amplitude of 10. c. At point 8 on the x axis. Wave A has an amplitdue of 0, and Wave B has an amplitude of -4, so Wave C at point 8 would be -4. You do not have to find the points for every single point along the x-axis, but just enough to get the general shape of the resulting wave. Once you…arrow_forward
- Answer the questions using the simulation above Set the frequency of wave 1 to 428 Hz and the frequency of wave 2 to 436 Hz. (a) Waves 1 and 2 are precisely in phase with one another at t = 0. If you look at the sum of the two waves, you can see that the amplitude of their sum drops to zero at one particular time between 50 and 100 ms (there are lots of places where the sum is zero, but only one place where the envelope enclosing the fast oscillations is zero, and that's the point we're interested in). Precisely when is the time, between 50 and 100 ms, when the amplitude of the sum is zero?(b) How many periods does this time correspond to for wave 1? You can get a pretty accurate idea of this by counting peaks on the wave 1 graph, but you should calculate it accurately.(c) How many periods does this time correspond to for wave 2? Note the difference between your answers for parts (b) and (c). It should be exactly half a period, which is why the waves experience completely destructive…arrow_forwardFor items 1-3 choose only one correct answer. No need for explanations. 1.
