Equation of Waves

Wave is an oscillation or disturbance traveling in a medium. It performs the transportation of energy but does not carry any matter. This motion of waves will transport fuel in a medium without permanent transfer of mass (particle).

10 Figure 17-30 shows a stretched string of length L and pipes a, b, c, and d of lengths L, 2L, L/2, and L/2, respectively. The string's tension is adjusted until the speed of waves on the string equals the speed of sound waves in the air. The fundamental mode of oscilla- tion is then set up on the string. In which pipe will the sound pro- duced by the string cause resonance, and what oscillation mode will that sound set up? L.

3 Figure 16-25a gives a snapshot of a wave traveling in the direc- tion of positive x along a string under tension. Four string elements are indicated by the lettered points. For each of those elements, de- termine whether, at the instant of the snapshot, the element is moving upward or downward or is momentarily at rest. (Hint: Imagine the wave as it moves through the four string elements, as if you were watching a video of the wave as it traveled rightward.) Figure 16-25b gives the displacement of a string element located at, say, x= 0 as a function of time. At the lettered times, is the element moving upward or downward or is it momentarily at rest?
