Question
Question 4
a. Write your understanding about coherent waves. A taut string for which u = 5.00 x 102 kg/m is
under a tension of 80.0 N. How much power must be supplied to the string to generate sinusoidal
waves at a frequency of 60.0 Hz and an amplitude of 6.00 cm?
b. The equation of a plane sound wave is, y(x, t) = 6.0 x 10-6 sin(5.7x – 1500t). Find the
frequency, the wavelength and the velocity of the wave. Compare the wavelength with the
amplitude of the oscillations and the wave velocity with the amplitude of the velocity of the
ocillations. What is the phase shift between the oscillations of two points 30.0 cm apart in the
direction of the sound wave?
