WAVES KEY TOPICS DEFINITION OF WAVES WAVE PARAMETERS – f, T, A, l PHYSICAL PROPERTIES WAVE SPEED WAVE TYPES
VIDEO A WAVE PULSE ON WATER
WORK & ENERGY • WORK THE PRODUCT OF THE FORCE ON AN OBJECT AND THE DISTANCE THAT IT MOVES • ENERGY THE ABILITY TO DO WORK
VIDEO THIS VIDEO SHOWS THAT A WAVE ON A SLINKY CARRIES ENERGY
WAVE DEFINITION A WAVE IS A DISTURBANCE IN A MEDIUM THAT CARRIES ENERGY FROM ONE PLACE TO ANOTHER THE MEDIUM IS UNCHANGED AFTER THE WAVE HAS PASSED
SINUSOIDAL WAVES • THE SINUSOIDAL WAVE MODEL CAN BE USED TO DEMONSTRATE THE PARAMETERS NEEDED TO DESCRIBE WAVES. • THESE WAVES POSSESS THE SHAPE OF A SIMPLE SINE CURVE.
WAVE PARAMETERS THE FOLLOWING PARAMETERS ARE USED TO DESCRIBE WAVES AMPLITUDE WAVELENGTH FREQUENCY PERIOD
DEMONSTRATION WAVE PARAMETERS CAN BE DEMONSTRATED USING THE PhET SIMULATION
FREQUENCY THE RATE OF VIBRATION OF THE MEDIUM OR THE SOURCE SYMBOL – f UNIT - Hz
PERIOD THE TIME FOR ONE COMPLETE VIBRATION SYMBOL – T UNIT - SECOND
PERIOD AND FREQUENCY f = n / t T = t / n Thus T = 1 / f or f = 1 / T They are reciprocals
AMPLITUDE THE MAXIMUM DISPLACEMENT OF THE MEDIUM FROM THE REST POSITION SYMBOL – A UNIT - METER
WAVELENGTH THE DISTANCE BETWEEN ADJACENT LIKE POINTS ALONG THE WAVE SYMBOL – l UNIT - METERS
PHYSICAL PROPERTIESOF WAVES WHEN A WAVE ENCOUNTERS A BOUNDARY BETWEEN TWO MEDIA THE ENERGY CAN BE: REFLECTED TRANSMITTED ABSORBED
WAVELENGTH & FREQUENCY THE FREQUENCY AND WAVELENGTH ARE INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL THIS CAN BE DEMONSTRATED WITH THE PhET WAVE DEMONSTRATION
QUESTION DIPPING YOUR FINGER INTO WATER FASTER AND FASTER CAUSES THE WAVELENGTH OF THE WATER WAVES TO _____ . A. SHORTEN B. LENGTHEN C. STAY THE SAME
SPEED OF WAVES • DEPENDS ON THE PROPERTIES OF THE MEDIUM • IF THE PROPERTIES OF THE MEDIUM DO NOT CHANGE THEN THE SPEED OF THE WAVE IS CONSTANT. SYMBOL – c UNIT – METER/SECOND
TYPES OF WAVES • TRANSVERSE THE MEDIUM VIBRATES PERPENDICULAR TO THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL OF THE WAVE. • LONGITUDINAL THE MEDIUM VIBRATES PARALLEL THE DIRECTION OF TRAVEL OF THE WAVE.
VIDEO THIS SIMULATION SHOWS TRANSVERSE AND LONGITUDINAL WAVES
VIDEO THIS VIDEO SHOWS THAT SOME WAVES ARE A COMBINATION OF TRANSVERSE AND LONGITUDINAL
