An earthquake can produce a seiche in a lake in which the water sloshes back and forth from end to end with remarkably large amplitude and long period. Consider a seiche produced in a farm pond. Suppose the pond is 8.36 m long and assume it has a uniform width and depth. You measure that a pulse produced at one end reaches the other end in 2.90s. (a) What is the wave speed? m/s (b) What should be the frequency of the ground motion during the earthquake to produce a seiche that is a standing wave with antinodes at each end of the pond and one node at the center? Hz
A pipe of length A has two open ends. Another pipe of length B has one open end and one closed end. The frequency of the first harmonic of both pipes is the same. What is (A/B)?
A wave is modeled with the function y(x,t) = (0.25m)cos(0.30m x-0.90s-1t+r/3). Find (0.5+ (a) the amplitude, (b) the wave speed, (c) the direction of the wave
