A student attaches a length of nylon fishing line to a fence post. She stretches it out and shakes the end of the rope in her hand back and forth to produce waves on the line. The most efficient way for her to increase the wavelength is to A) decrease the tension on the hose and shake the end fewer times per second. (B) decrease the tension on the hose and shake the end more times per second. increase the tension on the hose and shake the end fewer times per second. D increase the tension on the hose and shake the end more times per second. E) keep the tension and frequency the same but increase the length of the hose.

Shock Waves

Shock waves are common in continuum mechanics, and their dominance is attributable to the fact that they are stronger (or even less) compressible. Substantial perturbations propagated as sudden dynamic changes of a compressible medium supersonically. Shock waves are all around us in our daily lives. Lightning, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and meteorite impact all produce them in nature. Even the earth, which is protected by its magnetic field, generates a shock wave as in solar wind that travels around 20 Earth radiuses. These shock waves might be either constant, linked to the body, or unsteady, i.e., moving around with time. All of the shocks mentioned above can be damaging, so precautions must be taken to reduce their impact.
