- use the wave shown above to answer the question. The wave is travelling to the right with a speed of 1.5m/s. this history graph was taken at x = 2.0m. A) what is the frequency of this wave? B) what is the wave number of this wave? C) what is the phase constant of this wave?arrow_forwardA small wave pulse and a large wave pulse approach each other on a string; the large pulse is moving to the right. Some time after the pulses have met and passed each other, which of the following statements is correct? (More than one answer may be correct.) Explain.A. The large pulse continues unchanged, moving to the right.B. The large pulse continues moving to the right but is smaller in amplitude.C. The small pulse is reflected and moves off to the right with its original amplitude.D. The small pulse is reflected and moves off to the right with a smaller amplitude.E. The two pulses combine into a single pulse moving to the right.arrow_forwardTwo identical point sources are generating waves with the same frequency and amplitude. The two sources are in phase with each other, so the two sources generate wave crests at the same instant. The wavelength of the waves is equal to the distance between the two sources. A. List all the labeled points where the waves from the two sources constructively interfere. If there are no such points, indicate that by stating "none". Separate each letter with a space. Hint: Determine the difference in the distance that each wave travels from the point sources. For example the difference between the distance travelled to B = 1.5λ - 0.5λ. Constructive interference occurs at ΔL=nλ. Destructive occurs at ΔL=nλ/2. B. List all the labeled points where the waves from the two sources destructively interfere. If there are no such points, indicate that by stating "none". Separate each letter with a space. Hint: Constructive occurs at ΔL=nλ. Destructive occurs at L=ΔL=nλ/2.arrow_forward
