(a)
To Find: The formula for the ratio of wave speeds in the heavy section to that of the lighter section.
(a)

Answer to Problem 78GP
The formula for the ratio of wave speed in the heavy section to that in the lighter section is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
There is a sin wave that is traveling down the stretched twoparts.
Formula used:
The speed of the wave s given as,
Where,
Calculation:
The tension inside the chord must be the same every place because the chord is not accelerating to the left or right. So, in both parts of the chords, the tension is the same. But there is a speed difference due to the different mass densities of both parts of the chord. Here, consider the
Conclusion:
Hence, the formula for the ratio of wave speed in the heavy section to that in the lighter section is determined.
(b)
To Find: The ratio of the wavelengths in the two sections.
(b)

Answer to Problem 78GP
The ratio of the wavelengths in the two sections is
Explanation of Solution
Given:
There is a sine wave that is traveling down the stretched twoparts.
Here,
Formula used:
The ratio of the wave speeds in the two sections is given as,
Where,
And,
The wavelength is given as,
Where, v is the speed and
Calculation:
By using the wavelength formula in both sections, the ratio of the wavelength in the heavy and lighter section is given as,
To remains continuous at the boundary, the chord must be having the same frequencies. By using the equation (1), the wavelength ratio becomes
Conclusion:
The wavelength ratio is
(c)
To Check: The wavelength is greater in which medium.
(c)

Answer to Problem 78GP
The wavelength is greater in the lighter portion of the chord.
Explanation of Solution
Given:
There is a sin wave that is traveling down the stretched twoparts.
Here,
Formula used:
The wavelength ratio in each section is given as,
Where,
Calculation:
On the basis of the above formula, the wavelength is inversely varied with the
Conclusion:
Hence, the wavelength is maximum in the lighter section of the chord.

A person is setting up a small clean room space to carry out an outreach activity to educate high school students about patterning using photolithography. They obtained a positive photoresist, a used spin coater, a high energy light lamp for exposure and ordered a plastic transparency mask with a pattern on it to reduce cost. Upon trying this set up multiple times they find that the full resist gets developed, and they are unable to transfer the pattern onto the resist.
