A standing wave on a 1.64 m long horizontal string has two nodes – i.e., locations on thestring (excluding the two ends) that remain stationary as the string vibrates in place –when the string vibrates at 120 Hz. The maximum swing of the string (top to bottom) atthe centre of each loop is 8.0 cm. a) What is the function describing the standing wave? b) What are the functions describing the two equal-amplitude waves travelling in op-posite directions that make up the standing wave?
Two identical guitar strings are prepared such that they have the same length (0.67 m) and are under the same amount of tension. The first string is plucked at one location, primarily exciting the fourth harmonic. The other string is plucked in a different location, primarily exciting the second harmonic. The resulting sounds give rise to a beat frequency of 369 Hz. What is the wave propagation speed on the guitar strings?
A horizontal string can transmit a maximum power P0 (without breaking) if a wave with amplitude A and angular frequency ω is traveling along it. To increase this maximum power, a student folds the string and uses this “double string” as a medium. Assuming the tension in the two strands together is the same as the original tension in the single string and the angular frequency of the wave remains the same, determine the maximum power that can be transmitted along the “double string.”
A cable with a linear density of u = 0.210 kg/m is hung from telephone poles. The tension in the cable is 550.00 N. The distance between poles is 24 meters. The wind blows across the line, çausing the cable resonate. A standing waves pattern is produced that has 3.0 wavelengthš between the two poles. The air temperature is T'= 24°C. What are the frequency and wavelength of the hum? A =
To measure the acceleration due to gravity on a distant planet, an astronaut hangs a 0.0723-kg ball from the end of a wire. The wire has a length of 1.41 m and a linear density of 3.62 × 10-4 kg/m. Using electronic equipment, the astronaut measures the time for a transverse pulse to travel the length of the wire and obtains a value of 0.112 s. The mass of the wire is negligible compared to the mass of the ball. Determine the acceleration due to gravity. Number i Units
A nylon string fixed at both ends vibrates with a fundamental frequency of 196 Hz. Which of the following would have a higher fundamental frequency than this string? An indentical string that is longer. A nylon string with twice the diameter, but the same length. An indentical string that is tightened to a higher tension. An identical string that is given a larger amplitude of vibration.
A student connects one end of a string with negligible mass to an oscillator. The other end of the string is passed over a pulley and attached to a suspended weight, as shown above. The student finds that a standing wave with one antinode is formed on the string when the frequency of the oscillator is f0. The student then moves the oscillator to shorten the horizontal segment of string to half its original length. At what frequency will a standing wave with one antinode now be formed on the string? a. f0/2 b. f0 c. 2f0 d. There is no frequency at which a standing wave will be formed.
a circular loop of string is set spinning about the center point in a place with negligible gravity.The radius is 4.00 cm and the tangential speed of a string segment is 5.00 cm/s. The string is plucked. At what speed do transverse waves move along the string? (Hint: Apply Newton’s second law to a small, but finite, section of the string.)
A guitar string has an overall length of 2.0 m and a total mass of 35.2 g before it is strung on a guitar. Once on the guitar, however, there is a distance of 85 cm between its fixed end points. It is tightened to a tension of 345 N. (a) What is wave speed for waves on the tightened string? (b) What are the wavelength and frequency of the traveling waves that interfere to form the fundamental and second harmonic standing waves on the string? Sketch standing wave patterns of both harmonic in this string.
In the arrangement shown in Figure , an object can be hung from a string (with linear mass density μ = 0.002 00 kg/m) that passes over a light pulley. The string is connected to a vibrator (of constant frequency f), and the length of the string between point P and the pulley is L = 2.00 m. When the mass m of the object is either 16.0 kg or 25.0 kg, standing waves are observed; no standing waves are observed with any mass between these values, however, (a) What is the frequency of the vibrator? Note: The greater the tension in the string, the smaller the number of nodes in the standing wave, (b) What is the largest object mass for which standing waves could be observed?
