Wae elocity on string Waes trael faster on strings with higher h tension and lower mass/unit length. The exact relationship is Here μ is the string tension and μ is the mass/lengt Example: A 0.5 m string is stretched so the tension is 1.7 N. A transerse wae of frequency 10 Hz and waelength 0.31 m traels on the string. What is the mass of the string?

Example Problem A particular species of spider spins a web with silk threads of density 1300 kg/m 3 and diameter 3.0 µm. A typical tension in the radial threads of such a web is 0.007 N. What is the speed of the waes traeling on the web. If a fly lands in this web, which will reach the spider first, the sound or the wae on the web silk?

Conceptual question A weight is hung oer a pulley and attached to a string composed of two parts, each made of the same material but one haing four times the diameter of the other. The string is plucked so that a pulse moes along it, moing at speed 1 in the thick part and at speed in the thin part.what is 1 /?

Using a Tuning ork to Produce a Sound Wae A tuning fork will produce a pure musical note of frequency f As it s tine swings to the right, it forces the air molecules near it closer together This produces a high density area in the air This is an area of compression As the tine moes toward the left, the air molecules to the right of the tine spread out This produces an area of low density This area is called a rarefaction As the tuning fork continues to ibrate, a sinusoidal succession of compressions and rarefactions spread out from the fork Crests correspond to compressions and troughs to rarefactions λf λ

Sound amplitude and intensity The amplitude of the sound wae is proportional to the maximum elocity of the air as it moes from the high pressure to the low pressure domains. The energy and the power of the sound wae is proportional to the square of amplitude: 1 E ρ Amplitude max p xmax More useful than the energy of a sound wae is the intensity, I, which is the power P that the sound wae transmits per unit area.
