- c) When testing a supersonic jet nozzle for certification purposes, an aerospace engineer used a far-field microphone to measure the noise power spectrum density (PSD) radi- ated by the jet issuing from the nozzle. The engineer found that the measured noise spectrum, PSD(f)=: dW where f is frequency and W is acoustic power can be repres- df ented by a piece-wise linear function (Equation1): PSD=0,if f2fo.

The wave travels radially outward from the source, causing air molecules to oscillate radially inward and outward.

At any given instant, the wavefronts are concentric circles that are centered on the source. (a) Along x, what is the adjacent wavefront separation?
