We have seen that when you generate a wave on a stretched spring, as long as the medium doesn’t change (that is, the tension and

the linear mass density remain the same), the speed of the wave on the spring is constant. Does this mean that the particles of the spring always have zero acceleration? Explain why or why not.

Answer:

No, the acceleration is not always zero.

Explanation:

It does not mean that the acceleration of the particle is zero.

The velocity of wave is different from the velocity of particle.

The acceleration of wave is different from the acceleration of particle.

the acceleration of the particle is given by

a =- w^2 y

where, w is the angular frequency and y is the displacement from the mean position.

So, the acceleration is zero at mean position only and it varies as the position changes.

A student holding a 324Hz tuning fork approaches a wall at a speed of 6ms^(-1). The speed of sound in air is 336ms^(-1). What fr
Mashutka [201]

The frequency the student detect from waves omitted from the fork and waves coming from the wall is 348.1 Hz.

<h3>Frequency detected by the student</h3>

The observed frequency is determined by applying Doppler effect;

f' = f₀(v + v₀)/(v)

where;

  • f' is the observed frequency
  • v is speed of sound
  • v₀ is the source speed
  • f₀ is the original frequency

f' = 342(6 + 336)/(336)

f' = 348.1 Hz

Thus, the frequency the student detect from waves omitted from the fork and waves coming from the wall is 348.1 Hz.
