Please show all steps. Label all variable symbols such as wavelength, wave speed, period etc before using them in a formula. Please format division and multiplication clearly if typing the answer
1) On the diagram below, mark and label everywhere that the acceleration of the box would be zero. Also mark and label everywhere that the magnitude of the acceleration would be a maximum value
2) The diagram below represents the oscillation of a box on a spring. For the instant shown, the box is moving rightward. The spring obeys Hooke’s law and exerts a restoring force when stretched or compressed. Any friction is negligible
Each of the diagrams below represents a snapshot of two springs at an instant after a pulse has
reached the boundary between them. The linear mass density, µ, is greater for the tightly coiled
spring than for the other spring.
Each diagram may contain flaws that would not be observed with real springs. For each diagram:
a. Determine whether there is a flaw. If there is a flaw, describe it (a single flaw is sufficient)
and continue to the next diagram. If there are no flaws, answer parts b and c.
b. Make a sketch that shows the shape, width, and direction of motion of the incident pulse.
c. Determine which pulse is the reflected pulse and which is the transmitted pulse.
