If we increase the Tension (T) of a wave, the velocity of the wave increases (via v=sqrt(Tension/u)). Now using v=f*, what then happens to the frequency and wavelength? Does the frequency increase and the wavelength stay constant (or decrease)?
If we increase the Tension (T) of a wave, the velocity of the wave increases (via...
(1 point) 13. Frequently in physics, it is of fundamental (pun intended) importance to be able to mathematically describe waves. When attempting the following problem, consider the effects of frequency, wavelength, and velocity on wave propagation. Also note that these variables do not depend on the wave's amplitude. a) Which term best describes the type of wave whose waveform repeats at regular time intervals? A. Longitudinal B. Transverse C. Periodic b) What is the wavelength of a wave in terms...
I would appreciate if you could check my work for #2 and help me out with #3. I tend to get confused with proportions, and I’m not quite sure how to relate tension to frequency and wavelength (unless that is the idea, and one doesn’t affect the other). Thanks so much! PHY 221 Prelab: Standing Waves Name 1. Make a sketch of a wave on a string. On the sketch, label the amplitude and wavelength of the wave. V :...
For waves on a string, there are two formulae for the wave velocity: v = lambda f and v = squareroot T/mu For each of the two variables T and f, answer the following: - How can you increase the value of this variable in the lab? - Explain what happens (and why) to v, lambda, mu, T, and f as a result of this change. (The length of the string is a constant.)
Suppose on a string of length L=87 cm, tension T=115 N, and mass m the fundamental (1st Harmonic) has a frequency of f1= 500.0 Hz. a) What is the wavelength of the fundamental? b) What is the speed of propagation of the wave in the string? c) What is the mass m of the string? d) In order to tune the string to a new fundamental frequency of 505 Hz, how much does the tension need to change? Will it...
Consider a transverse harmonic wave travelling along a string. Enter true (T) or false (F) for the following statements. For example, if the first statement is true and the rest false, enter TFF. You have 4 tries. Increasing the frequency of the wave increases its wavelength. Increasing the amplitude of the wave increases its wavelength. If a wave with a frequency of 10 Hz travels along a string with a mass per unit length of 40 g/m stretched to a...

The graphs below show a snapshot of a wave on a string at time t = 0.00 ms on the left and the history of the piece of string at position x = 0.00 m on the right. The linear mass density of the string is 0.784 t/m. Is this wave moving to the right or to the left? Explain briefly. Assuming the wave may be represented mathematically by the equation y = A sin (kx plusminus omega t +...
A device emits a sound wave in helium gas which then travels into standard air of the same temperature. If the speed of sound in helium is about three times the speed of sound in standard air, which of the following is true? The frequency of sound decreases as the wave travels from helium to standard air while the wavelength increases. The frequency of the sound is unchanged as the wave travels from helium to standard air while the wavelength...
