1. On the diagram, mark with a star the position of the source of the wave when it produced the first peak. With a square, mark the position of the source of the wave when it produced its second peak.
2. What is the distance between the star you’ve drawn and the square you’ve drawn, in terms of previously-defined quantities? (Hint: How long did it take the source to cover this distance, and how quickly did it move?)
3. The first peak produced by the wave source is just now reaching observer A. What distance must the second peak travel before it reaches observer A? Answer in terms of λ and your answer to question 2.
4. How long will it take before the second peak reaches observer A? (Hint: What distance must the wave travel, and how quickly will it travel this distance?)
5. Your answer to question 4 is the period that observer A would record for this wave, that is, the time interval between successive peaks as they reach observer A. What frequency would observer A record for the wave?
6. Show that your answer to question 5 is consistent with the

The diagram below shows the peaks of a traveling circular wave. The first peak that the source produced is shown in light green, the second in dark green, and the third is just about to be produced at the point in the center. Observer A stands to the right of the source, and observer R stands to the left. The grey lines are simply guidelines and do not represent anything physical. 1. This circular wave has a wavelength of λ....
Question 8 Consider a source emitting sound at frequency f. The speed of sound wave in the medium is v. (a) Show that the Doppler frequency is for a stationary observer as the source approaches at speed v 12 marks (b) Show that the Doppler frequency is f for a stationary observer as the source recedes at speed v, [2 marks (c) Show that the Doppler frequency is vv as the observer and the source are travelling towards each other...
An experiment is set-up with a monochromatic light source, a double slit, and a screen, similar to what is shown on page 7-2 of your lab manual. The experimenter measures and sketches the intensity pattern shown below. The scale along the bottom of the figure is in centimeters. What is the distance 2x3 between the third maxima in the intensity pattern? Note: the central peak is the ?zeroth maximum?, the two peaks closest to this on either side are the...
Wave function
You are observing a wave traveling along the x-axis. The first picture (y vs. x) shows a snapshot of the wave at t=0. The second picture dy vs. t) shows how the wave height varies in time from the perspective of an observer standing at fixed location x-0. From this information, determine if the wave is traveling to the left or right. Give a one-sentence explanation justifying your answer 2) 3) The wave function for a harmonic (i.e.,...
1. A long cylindrical gas-tight tube, with a sound source at one end and sensor at the other, was constructed to measure the speed by recording the time it take a sound wave to travel the length of the tube (see diagram). i. Initially, the tube was filled with air at atmospheric pressure (P=1.012x105Pa & T=295.2K). When a sound wave is produced by the source, the elapsed time for the wave to reach the sensor was 3.64x10-3s. Determine the length of...
