Question

Waves

a) are the waves propagated along the string an example of longitudinal or transversal waves?

what is the direction of propagation of the wave?

what is the displacement of the string when the wave propagate?

b) what is the relationship between the wave velocity and the frequency?

c) why do you apply different mass on a waves experiment?

d) How is the mass related to the number of loops

e) the 2 meter string is set into vibration. what is the wavelenght of the produced standing wave?

f) if we decide not to change the level of water for the sound wave experiment, can we still do the experiment?

g) we measured 2 position of resonace is this enough to calculate wavelenght?

Explanation / Answer

a) Transverse waves

Forward direction

Direction of motion of particles are in perpendicular direction to propagation of wave

b) wave velocity =Frequency* wavelength

c) To calculate different nodes and antinodes

d) Keeping the length constant, if mass increases , number of loops increase
