1 Lecture Outline Chapter 16 Waves in One Dimension Slide 16-1

2 Chapter 16: Waves in One Dimension Chapter Goal: To study the kinematic and dynamics of wave motion, i.e., the transport of energy through a disturbance propagating through matter or empty space. Slide 16-2

3 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Representing waves Waves are common in our surroundings and can be seen in water, heard via sound, and travel as light through space. Slide 16-3

4 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Representing waves A wave is a disturbance that propagates through material (the medium) or through empty space. A wave pulse is a single isolated propagating disturbance. The wave function represents the shape of a wave at any given instant and changes with time as the wave travels. Slide 16-4

5 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Representing waves The wave speed c is the speed at which a wave propagates. For a mechanical wave, c is different from the speed υ of the particles of the medium and is determined by the properties of the medium. The displacement D of any particle of a medium through which a mechanical wave travels is a vector that points from the equilibrium position of the particle to its actual position. You will learn about the characteristics of waves and the physical variables used to study wave motion. Slide 16-5

6 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Representing waves In a transverse mechanical wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the pulse movement. In a longitudinal mechanical wave, these particles move parallel to the direction of the pulse movement. In a periodic wave, the displacement at any location in the medium is a periodic function of time. A periodic wave is harmonic when the particle displacement can be represented by a sinusoidally varying function of space and time. You will learn how to represent these types of waves both graphically and mathematically. Slide 16-6

7 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Combining waves Superposition of waves: The resultant displacement of two or more overlapping waves is the algebraic sum of the displacements of the individual waves. Interference occurs when two waves overlap. The interference is constructive when the displacements due to the two waves are in the same direction and destructive when the displacements are in opposite directions. Slide 16-7

8 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Combining waves If the displacement at a point in space remains zero as a wave travels through, that point is a node. The displacement at other points typically varies with time. If the displacement at a point in space varies over the greatest range as a wave travels through, that point is an antinode. You will learn how to represent the overlap of waves in one dimension both graphically and mathematically. Slide 16-8

9 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Combining waves When a wave pulse (the incident wave) reaches a boundary where the transmitting medium ends, the pulse is reflected, which means it reverses its direction. When a wave pulse is reflected from a fixed boundary, the reflected pulse is inverted relative to the incident pulse. When the reflection is from a boundary that is free to move, the reflected pulse is not inverted. Slide 16-9

10 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Ahead: Combining waves A standing wave is a pulsating stationary pattern caused by the interference of harmonic waves of equal amplitude and wavelengths traveling in opposite directions. You will learn the physical properties of standing waves and their mathematical representation. Slide 16-10

11 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Back: Fundamental characteristics of periodic motion Periodic motion is any motion that repeats itself at regular time intervals. Oscillation (or vibration) is back-and-forth periodic motion. The period T is the minimum time interval in which periodic motion repeats, and the amplitude A of the motion is the magnitude of the maximum displacement of the moving object from its equilibrium position. You learned about the characteristics of periodic motion and the physical variables used to study periodic motion. Slide 16-11

12 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Back: Simple harmonic motion Simple harmonic motion is periodic motion in which the displacement of a system from its equilibrium position varies sinusoidally with time. A system moving in this way is called a simple harmonic oscillator. A restoring force that is linearly proportional to displacement tends to return a simple harmonic oscillator to its equilibrium position. For small displacements, restoring forces are generally proportional to the displacement and therefore cause objects to execute simple harmonic motion about any stable equilibrium position. Slide 16-12

13 Chapter 16 Preview Looking Back: Simple harmonic motion A phasor is a rotating arrow whose component on a vertical axis traces out simple harmonic motion. The reference circle is the circle traced out by the tip of the phasor, and the length of the phasor is equal to the amplitude A of the simple harmonic motion. You learned to represent simple harmonic motion both diagramatically and mathematically. Slide 16-13

14 Chapter 16: Waves in One Dimension Concepts Slide 16-14

15 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically Section Goals You will learn to Visualize waves in one dimension using frame-sequence diagrams and displacement curves. Differentiate the wave speed, c, and the speed of the particles of the medium, υ. Slide 16-15

16 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically A transverse wave is a wave in which the medium movement is perpendicular to the wave pulse movement. For example, a wave pulse travels along a string in a horizontal direction while the particles that make up the string move up and down. Slide 16-16

17 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically As we can see from the figure, it is important to realize that The motion of a wave (or of a single wave pulse) is distinct from the motion of the particles in the medium that transmits the wave (or pulse). Wave moves right, particles move up & down Slide 16-17

18 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically The wave speed c of a wave pulse along a string is constant. Slide 16-18

19 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically Part (a) shows a snapshot of a triangular pulse traveling along a string. The vector D represents the displacement of one particular particle located at a position x along the string at a given instant t. Slide 16-19

20 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically The graphical representation of all the particle displacements at a given instant is shown in part (b). The curve gives the y components of the displacements of the particles of the string as a function of the position x along the string. This is called the wave function. Slide 16-20

21 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically The wave pulse shown in part (a) can also be represented by plotting the displacement of one particle on the string as a function of time. Such a plot gives us the displacement curve of the wave pulse. Parts (c) and (d) show the displacement curve for the particle at x = 0 m and x = 1.0 m. Slide 16-21

22 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically In a longitudinal wave, the medium movement is parallel to the pulse movement. Here we see a longitudinal wave propagating along a spring. If you rapidly displace the left end of the spring back and forth, a disturbance travels down the spring. Both waves and medium elements move to the right Slide 16-22

23 Section 16.1: Representing waves graphically As shown in the figure, a longitudinal wave can also be represented by wave functions and displacement curves. Slide 16-23

24 Section 16.2: Wave propagation Section Goals You will learn to Analyze the kinematics of wave motion and the time-evolution of the initial disturbance. Differentiate carefully between the motion of the wave itself and the motion of the particles of the medium the wave propagates through. Define the wavelength of a periodic wave. Slide 16-24

25 Section 16.2: Wave propagation Let us consider a collection of beads connected by short strings. You pull on the first bead, it pulls on the second Initial disturbance is the only cause of motion, so motion of any bead related to it alone Slide 16-25

26 Section 16.2: Wave propagation Two somewhat counterintuitive points: 1. When a particle of the string is displaced from its equilibrium position, its velocity and υ acceleration a are determined only by the initial disturbance and are independent of the wave speed c. 2. For a given disturbance, high wave speeds yield wave pulses that are stretched out and low wave speeds result in pulses that are more compressed. Slide 16-26

27 Section 16.2: Wave propagation As illustrated in the figure, we can determine that The speed c of a wave propagating along a string increases with increasing tension in the string and decreases with increasing mass per unit length along the string. Slide 16-27

28 Section 16.2: Wave propagation If one end of a string is made to execute a periodic motion, the resulting wave is called a periodic wave. A harmonic wave, shown in the figure, is a type of periodic wave obtained by moving the end of the string so that it oscillates harmonically. Slide 16-28

29 Section 16.2: Wave propagation A periodic wave repeats itself over a distance called the wavelength, denoted by λ. Each time one point on the string executes a complete oscillation, the wave advances by one wavelength. Therefore The wavelength of a periodic wave is equal to the product of the wave speed and the period of the wave motion. Slide 16-29

30 Section 16.2: Wave propagation As shown in the figure, moving your hand up and down more quickly does not generate a faster-traveling pulse. To a good approximation, we determine experimentally that The speed c of a wave propagating along a string is independent of the velocities υ of the individual pieces of string. The value of c is determined entirely by the properties of the medium. Slide 16-30

31 Section 16.2: Wave propagation The figure illustrates how a propagating wave pulse caries two forms of energy along with it: Kinetic energy associated with individual particles Elastic potential energy associated with the stretching of the string Slide 16-31

32 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves Section Goals You will learn to Visualize the superposition of two or more waves traveling through the same region of a medium at the same time. Define the nodes for a stationary wave disturbance. Slide 16-32

33 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves Waves exhibit a property known as the superposition of waves: If two or more waves overlap in a medium that obeys Hooke s law, then the resulting wave function at any instant is the algebraic sum of the individual waves. Slide 16-33

34 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves The phenomenon of two waves overlapping is called interference. If two waves with the same sign overlap, the resultant displacement is greater than that of either wave. This is called constructive interference. Slide 16-34

35 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves If two waves with opposite signs overlap, the resultant displacement is smaller than that of either wave. This is called destructive interference. Slide 16-35

36 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves If two waves of same size and shape but having opposite signs cross each other, the displacement of each wave cancels out. A point that remains stationary in a medium through which waves move is called a node. Slide 16-36

37 Section 16.3: Superposition of waves The figure shows the energy makeup of two pulses traveling in opposite directions. The instant the pulses overlap, the displacement is zero and all the energy is kinetic. From this we can determine that A wave contains equal amounts of kinetic energy and potential energy. Slide 16-37

38 Section 16.4: Boundary effects Section Goals You will learn to Model the reflection of waves from fixed and free ends. Represent the boundary effects for overlapping waves graphically. Slide 16-38

39 Section 16.4: Boundary effects When a wave pulse reaches a boundary where the transmitting medium ends, the pulse is reflected back. Consider a pulse propagating along a string that is anchored to an immovable wall. The leading edge of the pulse pulls up on the wall, and the wall pulls down on the string. Therefore, the reflected pulse is inverted. Slide 16-39

40 Section 16.4: Boundary effects The procedure for determining the shape of a reflected wave pulse can be illustrated using the example shown. Slide 16-40

41 Section 16.4: Boundary effects Now let us consider reflection from a free end. As the figure shows, the reflected wave in this case is not inverted. Slide 16-41

42 Section 16.4: Boundary effects When a pulse reaches a boundary between two different mediums, the pulse is partially transmitted to the second medium and partially reflected. The mass per unit length of a string is called the linear mass density µ. The nature of the reflected and transmitted waves depends on whether µ 1 is greater or smaller than µ 2. Slide 16-42

43 Chapter 16: Waves in One Dimension Quantitative Tools Slide 16-43

44 Section 16.5: Wave functions Section Goals You will learn to Represent traveling waves in one dimension mathematically using wave functions. Model harmonic traveling waves using trigonometric functions. Define the wave number, k, for a traveling harmonic wave. Slide 16-44

45 Section 16.5: Wave functions D y is the displacement of any particle on the string measured in Earth s reference frame. We can write D y = f(x, t), where f(x, t) is called the time-dependent wave function. f(x, t) completely specifies the changing shape of the wave as seen from Earth s reference frame. We can show that for a wave propagating at speed c: D y = f(x ct) Slide 16-45

46 Section 16.5: Wave functions Let us consider a transverse harmonic wave traveling along a string. We can see from part (b) that during a time interval of one period, the wave advances by a wavelength. Because the wave moves at a speed c, and f 1/T, we get λf = c Slide 16-46

47 Section 16.5: Wave functions We have previously defined the angular frequency: ω = 2πf = 2π/T We define the wave number k in a similar way k = 2π λ k has SI units of m 1. how many waves fit in 1 m For a transverse harmonic wave traveling in the positive x direction, the y component of the displacement is D y = f (x, t) = A sin (kx ωt + φ i ) φ i is the initial phase or the phase at x = 0, t = 0. A is the amplitude. Slide 16-47

48 Section 16.5: Wave functions Fourier s theorem from Section 15.3 can be applied to waves. Any wave can be expressed in terms of sinusoidally varying waves. The figure shows a wave pulse obtained by adding together a set of harmonic waves. Slide 16-48

49 Building a square wave Infinite series of sine waves Odd frequencies Slide 16-49

51 Checkpoint (a) Which of the following functions could represent a traveling wave? (i) A cos(kx + ωt) (ii) e k x ct 2 (iii) b(x ct) 2 e x (iv) (b 2 t x) 2 All but (iii). The rest have the form f(x-ct). (b) Which of the following functions can be made into a traveling wave? (i) x/(1 + bx 2 ) (ii) xe kx (iii) x 2 All of them, with the substitution x à x-ctor x+ct Slide 16-51

52 Section 16.6: Standing waves Section Goals You will learn to Establish the geometric and mathematical properties of standing waves. Derive the mathematical formulas that give the positions of the nodes and antinodes for standing waves on a string fixed at each end. Slide 16-52

53 Section 16.6: Standing waves The figure shows the interference between a incident harmonic wave on a string and the reflected wave from the fixed end of the string. The points on the string that have zero displacement are called nodes. Halfway between the nodes are the antinodes where the particles in the medium oscillate with maximum displacement. Slide 16-53

54 Section 16.6: Standing waves The pulsating stationary pattern caused by harmonic waves of the same amplitude traveling in opposite direction is called a standing wave. The figure illustrates how standing waves come about. Slide 16-54

55 Section 16.6: Standing waves A sinusoidal wave traveling to the right along the x-axis with angular frequency ω, wave number k, and amplitude A is D 1y = f 1 (x, t) = A sin(kx - ωt) The wave traveling to the left is The combined wave is D 2y = f 2 (x, t) = A sin(kx + ωt) D y = f 1 (x, t) + f 2 (x, t) = A[sin(kx + ωt) + sin(kx + ωt)] By simplifying this using trigonometric identities, we get D y = f 1 (x, t) + f 2 (x, t) = 2A sin kx cos ωt = [2A sin kx] cos ωt Slide 16-55

56 Section 16.6: Standing waves At points that are nodes in a standing wave sin kx must be zero. Therefore, at these points kx = nπ, where n is a whole number. Using the definition of k = 2π/λ, we obtain 2π λ x = nπ n = 0, ±1, ± 2, So, the nodes occur at x = 0, ± λ 2, ± λ, ± 3λ 2, Slide 16-56

57 Section 16.6: Standing waves Antinodes occur when sin kx = ±1. This requires that kx = n(π/2), where n is an odd whole number. So, the antinodes occur at x = ± λ 4, ± 3λ 4, 5λ 4, Slide 16-57

58 Checkpoint (a) Do two counterpropagating waves that have the same wavelength but different amplitudes cause standing waves? (b) Do two counterpropagating waves that have the same amplitude but different wavelengths cause standing waves? Slide 16-58

59 Checkpoint (a) Do two counterpropagating waves that have the same wavelength but different amplitudes cause standing waves? No. If one amplitude were twice the other, half of it forms a standing wave with the whole of the other one. That leaves half a traveling wave yet. (b) Do two counterpropagating waves that have the same amplitude but different wavelengths cause standing waves? No, in this case interference for a given position is constructive at some instants and destructive at others. For a standing wave, it has to be the same at all instants for a given position. Slide 16-59

60 Section 16.7: Wave speed Section Goal You will learn to Derive equations that give the speed of wave propagation for traveling waves on a uniform mass density string. Slide 16-60

61 Section 16.7: Wave speed The procedure for deriving an expression for the wave speed c is illustrated in the figure. You can look up a derivation. Slide 16-61

62 Section 16.7: Wave speed The mass per unit length of a uniform string is called the linear mass density (µ), and is defined as µ m (uniform linear object) We can derive the wave speed of a transverse wave on a string to be where is the string tension. Guitar/piano: tighten to tune, vary string weight to change note. Slide 16-62

63 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass You use a hammer to give a sharp horizontal blow to a 10-kg lead brick suspended from the ceiling by a wire that is 5.0 m long. It takes 70 ms for the pulse generated by the sudden displacement of the brick to reach the ceiling. What is the mass of the wire? Slide 16-63

64 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass (cont.) ❶ GETTING STARTED I begin by making a sketch of the situation (Figure 16.40a). Because I know the pulse travels 5.0 m in 70 ms, I can determine the wave speed along the wire: c = (5.0 m)/(0.070 s) = 71 m/s. This wave speed depends on the linear mass density of the wire and the tension in the wire. The latter is determined by the force exerted by the brick on the wire. Slide 16-64

65 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass (cont.) ❶ GETTING STARTED Because the force exerted by the brick on the wire and the force exerted by the wire on the brick are equal in magnitude, I draw a free-body diagram for the brick (Figure 16.40b) to help me determine that magnitude. Slide 16-65

66 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass (cont.) ❷ DEVISE PLAN To determine the mass of the wire, I can use Eq To use this equation, I must know the length of the wire, which is given, and the linear mass density µ, which I can calculate from Eq To obtain µ from Eq , I need to know c (which I already calculated) and the tension in the wire. The tension is just the weight of the brick. Slide 16-66

67 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass (cont.) ❸ EXECUTE PLAN The tension is equal to the downward force of gravity exerted on the brick: = F G Eb = (10 kg)(9.8 m/s 2 ) = 98 N. Substituting the values for and c into Eq , I calculate the linear mass density of the wire µ = /c 2 = (98 N)/(71 m/s) 2 = kg/m. The mass of the wire is thus m = (0.019 kg/m)(5.0 m) = kg. Slide 16-67

68 Section 16.7: Wave speed Example 16.4 Measuring mass (cont.) ❹ EVALUATE RESULT The value I obtain about 0.1 kg is not unreasonable for a 5.0-m-long wire that can support a lead brick. Slide 16-68

69 Section 16.7 Question A vibrating string is clamped at both ends, with one of the clamps being a tension-adjustment screw. By what factor must you change the tension in the string to double its frequency of vibration without changing the wavelength? / (1/2) /2 6. (1/2) 1/2 7. None of the above Slide 16-69

70 Section 16.7 Question A vibrating string is clamped at both ends, with one of the clamps being a tension-adjustment screw. By what factor must you change the tension in the string to double its frequency of vibration without changing the wavelength? / since f ~ c ~ T, doubling f means T increases fourfold 4. (1/2) /2 6. (1/2) 1/2 7. None of the above Slide 16-70

71 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Section Goals You will learn to Calculate the kinetic and potential energy for a wave disturbance in one dimension. Express the average power carried by a harmonic wave. Slide 16-71

72 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Let E λ denote the energy that must be supplied over a period T to generate a wave on a string. Then the average power that must be supplied to generate the wave is given by P av ΔE Δt = E λ T Using the figure, we can show E λ = 1 2 (µλ)ω 2 A 2 And the average power is P av = 1 2 µλ A2 ω 2 /T = 1 2 µ A2 ω 2 c Slide 16-72

73 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Example 16.5 Delivering energy A wire with linear mass density µ = kg/m is held taut with a tension of 100 N. At what rate must energy be supplied to the wire to generate a traveling harmonic wave that has a frequency of 500 Hz and an amplitude of 5.00 mm? Slide 16-73

74 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Example 16.5 Delivering energy (cont.) ❶ GETTING STARTED The rate at which energy must be supplied to the wire is the power. Because none of the quantities given varies with time, the (instantaneous) power is equal to the average power, which is given by Eq Slide 16-74

75 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Example 16.5 Delivering energy (cont.) ❷ DEVISE PLAN To calculate the average power, I need to know µ and A, both of which are given, as well as ω and c. The angular frequency ω is related to the frequency f by Eq. 15.4, ω = 2πf, and I can obtain the wave speed c from Eq Slide 16-75

76 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Example 16.5 Delivering energy (cont.) ❸ EXECUTE PLAN From Eq I obtain c = /µ = (100 N)/( kg/m) = 44.7 m/s yields ω = 2πf = 2π(500 Hz) = s 1. Substituting these values into Eq gives Equation P av = 1 2 ( kg/m)( m)2 ( s 1 ) 2 (44.7 m/s) = 275 W. Slide 16-76

77 Section 16.8: Energy transport in waves Example 16.5 Delivering energy (cont.) ❹ EVALUATE RESULT The answer I obtain is a fairly large power comparable to the power delivered by a 250-W light bulb or by a person exercising. The wave travels very fast, though, and the frequency is high, so the answer is not unreasonable. Slide 16-77

78 Section 16.9: The wave equation Section Goals You will learn to Derive the general equation for the time- and spaceevolution of a wave using differential calculus. Relate the speed of wave propagation, c, to physical quantities for the case of a wave on a string. Slide 16-78

79 Section 16.9: The wave equation The figure shows a piece of a string that has been displaced by a passing wave. With the use of this figure, we can show that the wave function f (x, t) that represents a wave is a solution of the wave equation given by Can use this for f x 2 = 1 2 f c 2 t, 2 Slide 16-79

80 Section 16.9: The wave equation Exercise 16.6 Sinusoidal solution to the wave equation Show that a sinusoidal traveling wave of the form f (x, t) = A sin(kx ωt) satisfies the wave equation for any value of k and ω. Slide 16-80

81 Section 16.9: The wave equation Exercise 16.6 Sinusoidal solution to the wave equation (cont.) SOLUTION The first partial derivative of f (x, t) with respect to x is f = ka cos(kx ωt), x and so the second partial derivative with respect to x is 2 f x 2 = k 2 A sin(kx ωt). (1) Slide 16-81

82 Section 16.9: The wave equation Exercise 16.6 Sinusoidal solution to the wave equation (cont.) The first partial derivative of f (x, t) with respect to t is f t = ω A cos(kx ωt). Differentiating again gives 2 f t 2 = ω 2 A sin(kx ωt). Slide 16-82

83 Section 16.9: The wave equation Exercise 16.6 Sinusoidal solution to the wave equation (cont.) Multiplying both sides of this equation by 1/c 2 and using k = ω/c (Eq ), I obtain 1 2 f = ω 2 c 2 t 2 c A sin(kx ωt) = k 2 A sin(kx ωt). (2) 2 Because the right sides of Eqs. 1 and 2 are equal, the left sides must also be equal, so 2 f x = 1 2 f 2 c 2 t, 2 which is Eq , and so the wave equation is satisfied. Slide 16-83

84 Section 16.9 Question 9 A wave pulse moves along a stretched string. Describe the relationship among the speed at which the pulse moves, the pulse curvature, and the acceleration of small segments of the string. 1. Pulse speed α pulse curvature α acceleration 2. Pulse speed α pulse curvature α 1/acceleration 3. Pulse speed α 1/pulse curvature α acceleration 4. 1/Pulse speed α pulse curvature α acceleration 5. 1/Pulse speed α 1/pulse curvature α 1/acceleration Slide 16-84

85 Section 16.9 Question 9 A wave pulse moves along a stretched string. Describe the relationship among the speed at which the pulse moves, the pulse curvature, and the acceleration of small segments of the string. 4. 1/Pulse speed α pulse curvature α acceleration Curvature ~ second derivative wrt position Acceleration ~ second derivative wrt time so curvature ~ acceleration Established lower waves have higher curvature Slide 16-85

86 Homework A: At what displacement (expressed as a fraction of the amplitude A of the motion) is the kinetic energy of the cart in the figure half its maximum value? K ~ v 2 ~ A 2. For K to halve, A must decrease by 1/ 2 Slide 16-86

87 Homework B: What is the velocity (expressed as a fraction of the maximum velocity) at this displacement? Again, K ~ v 2 ~ A 2. If K is reduced by half, v must decrease by 1/ 2 Slide 16-87

88 Homework Which of these forces could result in simple harmonic motion? The positive values of F(x) correspond to the forces acting in the positive x direction. What is required for SHM? Need F ~ -x. Overall constants are irrelevant, but sign is key. (The F ~ -x 3 forces would cause oscillation, but not with SHM) Slide 16-88

89 Homework When air resistance is ignored, does a pendulum clock run faster or slower at higher altitude? T 2 = L/g which changes with altitude? As altitude increases, interaction with earth decreases, and g decreases. As height increases, T increases and it runs slower. Slide 16-89

90 Homework A1 kg object undergoes simple harmonic motion with an amplitude of 0.17m and a maximum acceleration of 4m/s 2.What is its energy? E = ½kA 2, but we don t have k We do know that the max acceleration arises from max spring force. That happens at maximum displacement, the amplitude. That gets us k. F max = ka = ma max, so k = ma max /A Slide 16-90

91 Homework Matching x(0) = c = x o, and v(0) = dx/dt = v o = ω. Make it happen. Slide 16-91

92 Homework A 2.3-kg cart is attached to a horizontal spring for which the spring constant is 60 N/m. The system is set in motion when the cart is 0.24 m from its equilibrium position, and the initial velocity is 2.2 m/s directed away from the equilibrium position. A: What is the amplitude? Conservation of energy. Total E = max U = ½kA 2. Given x & v, ½kx 2 +½mv 2 = ½kA 2. Slide 16-92

93 Homework B: What is the speed of the cart at its equilibrium position? At equilibrium, U = 0, so energy is purely kinetic. That means ½mv 2 = ½kA 2 at equilibrium. Slide 16-93

94 Homework After gluing two 0.60-kg blocks together, you determine that you can pull the blocks apart with a force of 25N. You attach the top block to a vertical spring for which the spring constant is 800 N/m. What is the maximum possible amplitude of oscillation for which the glue can keep the blocks together? Call the blocks A and B. Glue force holding them together, spring force, weights. Slide 16-94

95 Homework First, acceleration is greatest at maximum extent, and there we know F = m tot a=ka. Thus, a = Ak/m tot = Ak/(m a +m b ) (we know m a =m b and we know the total mass) Free body diagram on lower block? F glue m A g = m A a knowing F glue = F AB Combine the two, and you get the amplitude. Key point: where you need total mass, just that of block A Slide 16-95

96 Homework Two blocks, of masses m 1 and m 2, are placed on a horizontal surface and attached to opposite ends of a spring. The blocks are then pushed toward each other to compress the spring. The spring constant for the spring is k. Ignore friction and the mass of the spring. A: no net force, so no net acceleration. COM can t move. Slide 16-96

97 Homework B: The center of mass is If it doesn t move, this implies Spring force m 1 x 1 + m 2 x 2 m 1 + m 2 m 1 x 1 (t) =-m 2 x 2 (t) F 1 = m 1 d 2 x dt 2 F 2 = m 2 d 2 x dt 2 Slide 16-97

98 Homework If it is simple harmonic motion, x(t) =A sin (!t + ) We know the frequencies must be the same for no COM motion (exactly in sync). That means F 1 = -m 1! 2 x 1 (t) F 2 = -m 2! 2 x 2 (t) But the spring force also just depends on the net displacement: F 1 = -F 2 = k x tot = k(x 1 (t) - x 2 (t)) = kx 1 (t)+k m 1 m 2 x 1 (t) (using first COM equation) Slide 16-98

99 Homework Now you have two expressions for F 1, set them equal. That gets you the frequency. It depends on the reduced mass, try looking that up. C, D) you remember how to do limits. C) physically, like m 2 is just a wall, so it only depends on m 1. Slide 16-99

100 Homework A uniform disk of mass m and radius R lies in a vertical plane and is pivoted about a point a distance l cm from its center of mass. When given a small rotational displacement about the pivot, the disk undergoes simple harmonic motion. Slide

101 Homework Wut. Physical pendulum: T = 2 s I ml cm g If we can figure out I, we re done we know I about the center of mass, and the distance from the pivot axis to the center of mass. I = I cm + ml 2 cm Slide

102 Homework Critical damping is a term used to describe a situation where the damping coefficient b is just great enough that no oscillation occurs (This is how you want the springs in your car to behave, so that when they flex to take you smoothly over a bump, they don't cause the car to jump up and down, reducing contact with the road.) At critical damping, ω = 0 no oscillation at all! Slide

103 Homework What is the frequency in the presence of damping? Solve for b! d = r! 2 - b2 4m 2 = r k m - b2 4m 2 = 0 Slide

105 Chapter 16: Summary Concepts: Representing waves A wave is a disturbance that propagates through material (the medium) or through empty space. A wave pulse is a single isolated propagating disturbance. The wave function represents the shape of a wave at any given instant and changes with time as the wave travels. Slide

106 Chapter 16: Summary Concepts: Representing waves The wave speed c is the speed at which a wave propagates. For a mechanical wave, c is different from the speed υ of the particles of the medium and is determined by the properties of the medium. The displacement D of any particle of a medium through which a mechanical wave travels is a vector that points from the equilibrium position of the particle to its actual position. Slide

107 Chapter 16: Summary Concepts: Representing waves In a transverse mechanical wave, the particles of the medium move perpendicular to the direction of the pulse movement. In a longitudinal mechanical wave, these particles move parallel to the direction of the pulse movement. In a periodic wave, the displacement at any location in the medium is a periodic function of time. A periodic wave is harmonic when the particle displacement can be represented by a sinusoidally varying function of space and time. Slide

108 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Representing waves If a wave travels in the x direction with speed c and f (x) describes the form (shape) of the wave, then the y component D y of the displacement of a particle of the medium is D y = f (x ct) if the wave travels in the positive x direction and D y = f (x + ct) if the wave travels in the negative x direction. The wavelength λ of a periodic wave is the minimum distance over which the wave repeats itself. Slide

109 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Representing waves For a periodic wave of period T, frequency f, and speed c, the wave number k is The wavelength λ is k = 2π λ. λ = ct, The angular frequency ω is ω = 2π T, The wave speed is c = λf. Slide

110 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Representing waves For a transverse harmonic wave of amplitude A and initial phase ϕ i traveling in the positive x direction, the y component D y of the displacement of a particle of the medium is D y = f (x, t) = A sin(kx ωt + ϕ i ). Slide

111 Chapter 16: Summary Concepts: Combining waves Superposition of waves: The resultant displacement of two or more overlapping waves is the algebraic sum of the displacements of the individual waves. Interference occurs when two waves overlap. The interference is constructive when the displacements due to the two waves are in the same direction and destructive when the displacements are in opposite directions. If the displacement at a point in space remains zero as a wave travels through, that point is a node. The displacement at other points typically varies with time. If the displacement at a point in space varies over the greatest range as a wave travels through, that point is an antinode. Slide

112 Chapter 16: Summary Concepts: Combining waves When a wave pulse (the incident wave) reaches a boundary where the transmitting medium ends, the pulse is reflected, which means it reverses its direction. When a wave pulse is reflected from a fixed boundary, the reflected pulse is inverted relative to the incident pulse. When the reflection is from a boundary that is free to move, the reflected pulse is not inverted. A standing wave is a pulsating stationary pattern caused by the interference of harmonic waves of equal amplitude and wavelengths traveling in opposite directions. Slide

113 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Combining waves If two harmonic waves of equal wavelength λ and equal amplitude A travel in opposite directions on a string, they produce a standing wave. The y component D y of the string displacement at any position x along the string is given by D y = 2A sin kx cos ωt. The nodes occur at The antinodes occur at x = 0, ± λ 2, ± λ, ± 3λ 2, x = ± λ 4, ± 3λ 4, ± 5λ 4, Slide

114 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Waves on a string For a uniform string of mass m and length l, the linear mass density µ (mass per unit length) is µ = m. The speed of a wave on a string under tension is Slide

115 Chapter 16: Summary Quantitative Tools: Waves on a string The average power P av that must be supplied to generate a wave of period T is P av = 1 2 µλ A2 ω 2 /T = 1 2 µ A2 ω 2 c. Any function f of the form f (x ct) or f (x + ct) that represents a wave traveling with speed c is a solution of the wave equation: 2 f x 2 = 1 c 2 2 f t 2. Slide
