2. (One word) In a standing wave the positions at which the medium has maximum displacement are called
When the particles of a medium move with simple harmonic motion, this means the wave is a __________. sinusoidal wave transverse wave sound wave harmonic wave standing wave
3. Sound a) (5 pts) True or False? i Sound wave does not require a medium to propagate. ii. If the frequency of a sound wave is increased the speed of the sound will increase. iii. The loudness of the sound you hear goes up and down with a regular frequency when there are two sound sources of frequencies that are close but not equal to each other. iv. The fundamental frequency of a tuba is 36 Hz. Considering a...
When the source of a wave and an observer move either towards or away from each other the observed frequency of the wave will be different from the frequency at which the wave is emitted. For example, if you are standing by the side of the road and a police car with a siren passes by, the frequency of the sound you hear will be higher when the car is moving towards you and lower when it is moving away...
TW6 traveling waves in opposite directions produce a standing wave. The individual wave functions are: Th6 traveling waves in opposite diretions produce a standing wave. The individual wave 4. y,-(4.0 cm) sin (3.0-2.00 y,-(4.0 cm) sin (3.0x + 2.00 where x and y are measured in centimeters.

Problem 1 [30 pts): Two waves travelling in opposite directions produce a standing wave. The individual wave functions are: b = 6sin(4x - 5t) 42 = 6sin(4x + 5t) where x and y are measured in m and t in s. a) (10 pts] Find the amplitude of the simple harmonic motion of the element of the medium located at x = 2.7 m. b) (20 pts) Find the positions of the first three nodes and antinodes if one end...
Question 4 For waves that move at a constant wave speed, the particles in the medium do not accelerate. Select the correct answer O False O True Question 6 Two car horns are sounded creating two sound waves with frequencies that differ by a factor of three. How does the speed of the higher frequency sound wave compare to the lower frequency sound wave? Select the correct answer The higher frequency sound wave travels 3 times faster Your Answer O...
The frequency of the standing wave when there is one loop is called the fundamental frequency of the first harmonic. In general, what statement can be made about the degree to which the frequency at each of the harmonics increases compared to the frequency at the fundamental frequency, or first harmonic?
The change in direction of an electromagnetic wave as it passes from one medium to another is called ... Select one: a. reflection b. dispersion c. refraction d. polarization
Two transverse sinusoidal waves combining in a medium are described by the wave functions y_1 = 1.00 sin pi (x + 0.900t) y_2 = 1.00 sin pi(x - 0.900t) where x, y_1, and y_2 are in centimeters and t is in seconds. Determine the maximum transverse position of an element of the medium at the following positions. x = 0.240 cm |y max| = x = 0.340 cm |ymax| = x = 1.40 cm |ymax| = Find the three smallest...
