Answer:

Amplitude—distance between the resting position and the maximum displacement of the wave

Frequency—number of waves passing by a specific point per second

Period—time it takes for one wave cycle to complete

wavelength λ - the distance between adjacent identical parts of a wave, parallel to the direction of propagation.

Tension - described as the pulling force transmitted axially by the means of a string, a cable, chain, or similar one-dimensional continuous object, or by each end of a rod, truss member, or similar three-dimensional object

Answer:

The nodes and anti nodes would reverse roles.

Explanation:

I believe it has to do with the path differences. If waves are in phase, then the path differences are such that the waves reach the screen with crests superimposing crests and troughs superimposing troughs. This happens when the periods of each wave are equal or the paths themselves differ by a whole number multiple of the wavelength (λ, 2λ, 3λ, ...).

Now make these waves out of phase. Then half of the waves will travel half a wavelength farther than the rest. So the path difference will be 0.5λ, 1.5λ, 2.5λ, ....

Suppose a piano tuner hears 2 beats per second when listening to the combined sound from her tuning fork and the piano note bein
maksim [4K]

Answer:

further tightening is required.

Explanation:

The beat created / sec = difference of frequencies

Initial beat heard = 2

so difference of frequencies = 2

after tightening beat heard  = 1

difference  of frequencies decreases because frequency of tuning fork was higher than piano sound.

on further tightening  difference decreases because tightening increases the frequency  of piano hence   further  tightening is required for resonance.
