- The vertical position, y, of any point on a rope that supports a transverse wave travelling horizontally is given by the equation: y = 0.5 sin(4πt + 5TX) with x and y in meters and t in seconds. Find the: a. amplitude b. angular frequency c. frequency d. period e. wavelength f. wave speed g. angular wave number h. Does this wave travel in the +x or -x direction?arrow_forwardThe human body creates and responds to a variety of waves. Select all of the true statements. Correct the false statements. a. The vocal cords produce sound waves by vibrating air molecules perpendicularly to the direction of travel. b. The sound waves produced when you clap your hands are examples of surface waves. c. The ear detects pressure waves that vibrate the air parallel to the direction the wave travels. d. An ocean swimmer bobs up and down and side to side because surface waves are a combination of both longitudinal and transverse waves. e. The wave motion of muscles along the human digestive tract is similar to the motion of a wave on a rope. Therefore, these waves are transverse waves.arrow_forwardYou try to form standing waves in an air column by using a tuning fork. How would you know that you hit a resonance at a certain length?

- Write P if only statement A is correct, H if only statement B is correct, Y if both statements are correct and S if both statements are incorrect. 1. A. Waves are created by vibrations. B. As wave moves through a medium, the individual particles of the medium move from the source of the wave to another location some distance away 2. A. Doubling the frequency of a wave source (without altering the medium) doubles the speed of the wave. B. Amplitude and frequency affects the energy of a wave. 3. A. High frequency waves are far apart and low frequency waves are close together. B. X-ray waves are low energy waves. 4. A. You cannot reflect all waves. B. All waves are visible. 5. A. During refraction, a wave bends because it hits the edge of a barrier. B. As a wave changes media, its speed changes.arrow_forwardIf you are playing a non-harmonic or percussion instrument and you change the number of overtones of a note, you will: A. Make the pitch sound higher. B. It is hard to say because most percussion instruments don’t have a strong sense of pitch in the first place. C. Change the pitch of the note. D. Lose all sense of pitch.arrow_forward3. In general, the higher the frequency of the interfering waves, A. the higher the wavelength B. the higher the speed of the waves C. the greater the number of nodes and antinodes D. the higher the amplitude of the waves 4.
