Chapter 17, Problem 5Q
(Optional) Consider a long whip antenna of the type used on some automobiles and trucks. Show that the natural frequencies of oscillation for the antenna are fm = mv/4L, where m = 1, 3, 5, … , v is the wave speed, and L is the length of the antenna. (Hint: The boundary conditions are a node and an antinode.)

Estimate the instrument's usable frequency range to keep its dynamic error within 10%.arrow_forwardThe initials “AM” stand for amplitude modulation. Instead of fluctuating frequencies as above, they instead vary the amplitude, such that y= A(t)sin[2pif]t. Notice that the frequency is now fixed, but the amplitude will be inconsistent. Each AM station is assigned a frequency in kHz (1000 waves/second.) For example, 760AM is assigned a frequency of f=760kHz. a. What is the wavelength of the 760AM radio waves? b.
