Question 2:
Consider a wave described by the equation: n(x, t) = a Cos [21- vt)]. (a is the
amplitude of the wave, a is its wavelength and v is its frequency.)
a/ Att =0.0, the profile of the wave in space is shown according to the below figure. Use
the figure to calculate the wavelength and amplitude
b/ Att = 2.0, the wave moves to the right according to the following figure. Calculate the
frequency and speed of the wave.
t+0.0
t=2.0
6
c/ A standing wave can be made by summing up two traveling waves traveling in
opposite directions
Nstanding wave (x, t) = a Cos [2r (– vt)] + a Cos [2r (- + vt)]
Draw the profiles of the wave n (x, t) = a Cos [27(G– vt)] in space together with the
wave n2(x, t) = a Cos [27G+ vt)] at t=0.0, t=0.5, t=1.0, t=1.5. Also, draw the
interference of the two waves to show that it is not traveling.
