Get started for freeOne end of a horizontal rope is attached to a prong of another end passes over a pulley and supports a 1.50-kg mass. The linear mass density of the rope is 0.0480 kg/m. (a) What is the speed of a transverse wave on the rope? (b) What is the wavelength? (c) How would you answer to parts (a) and (b) change if the mass were increased to 3.00 kg?
Symphonic musicians always โwarm upโ their wind instruments by blowing into them before a performance. What purpose
does this serve?
Two loudspeakers, A and B, are driven by the same amplifier and emit sinusoidal waves in phase. Speaker B is 12.0 m to the right of speaker A. The frequency of the waves emitted by each speaker is 688 Hz. You are standing between the speakers, along the line connecting them, and are at a point of constructive interference. How far must you walk toward speaker B to move to a point of destructive interference?
After a beam passes through
(a)
Two small stereo speakers are driven in step by the same variable-frequency oscillator. Their sound is picked up by a microphone. For what frequencies does their sound at the speakers produce (a) constructive interference and (b) destructive interference?
