A transverse wave on a string is described by the following wave function. y- 0115 an (* sat) = 0.115 sin + 5x where x and y are in meters and t is in seconds. (a) Determine the transverse speed att = 0.130 s for an element of the string located at x = 1.80 m. 1.804 This is the maximum transverse speed. It is unlikely that the element of the string at 1.80 m will happen to be traveling at this maximum speed at 0.130 s. m/s (b) Determine the transverse acceleration at t = 0.130 s for an element of the string located at x = 1.80 m. 1.242 Given the equation for the vertical position of elements of the string as a function of time, how do you determine the velocity of those elements as a function of time? m/s? (c) What is the wavelength of this wave? 24 (d) What is the period of this wave? 0.4 (e) What is the speed of propagation of this wave? 60 m/s
Properties of sound
A sound wave is a mechanical wave (or mechanical vibration) that transit through media such as gas (air), liquid (water), and solid (wood).
Quality Of Sound
A sound or a sound wave is defined as the energy produced due to the vibrations of particles in a medium. When any medium produces a disturbance or vibrations, it causes a movement in the air particles which produces sound waves. Molecules in the air vibrate about a certain average position and create compressions and rarefactions. This is called pitch which is defined as the frequency of sound. The frequency is defined as the number of oscillations in pressure per second.
Categories of Sound Wave
People perceive sound in different ways, like a medico student takes sound as vibration produced by objects reaching the human eardrum. A physicist perceives sound as vibration produced by an object, which produces disturbances in nearby air molecules that travel further. Both of them describe it as vibration generated by an object, the difference is one talks about how it is received and other deals with how it travels and propagates across various mediums.
