AIM: What is a wave and how do we describe them? Do Now: Draw a wave and label any part of the wave you know. Homework Blue book pg 153-155 #1-47
Simple Harmonic Oscillators • An object in simple harmonic motion experiences a net force which obeys Hooke’s Law • The oscillator oscillates about an equilibrium position (or mean position) between two extreme positions of maximum displacement in a periodic manner • Periodic means regular (same every time) and repeating Mass on a spring pendulum
Vocabulary • Period (T): • The time for one oscillation • Measured in Seconds • Period = Time/number of oscillations • Frequency (f) • The number of oscillations in one second • Measured in Hertz; Hz (1/s or s-1) • Frequency = Number of oscillations/time • Mathematical Relationship between Period and Frequency • Period and frequency are inversely related
Examples • A mass on a spring completes 10 oscillations in 30 seconds. • What is the period of oscillation? • What is the frequency of oscillation? • A pendulum completes 5 swings in a minute • What is the frequency of oscillation? • What is the period of oscillation?
Waves • Waves are repetitive disturbances that transfer ENERGY without transferring MATTER • energy transferred without matter being transfered • Mechanical Waves require a medium to travel through. • Mediums include; water, air, anything solid • SOUND is a mechanical wave • "the wave" • Electromagnetic Waves do not require a medium to travel through. They can travel through a vacuum (empty space) • Empty space exists outside of Earth’s atmosphere • LIGHT, Xrays, Radio Waves are all examples of electromagnetic waves • electromagnetic waves
The Electromagnetic Spectrum • ALL electromagnetic waves travel at the speed of light! • cis the symbol for the constant “speed of light” • cis always equal to 3x108 m/s when electromagnetic waves are traveling through a vacuum. • This speed can be decreased by sending light through a different medium • Nothing can ever travel faster than the speed of light. • Visible light is the same type of wave as a radio wave, an Xray, or a microwave. Its just a different size! • electromagnetic spectrum
Visible Spectrum. Each color is within these FREQUENCY ranges. Remember, higher frequency, lower wavelength The Electromagnetic Spectrum VERY small wavelengths VERY high frequencies VERY low frequencies VERY high wavelengths
The Electromagnetic Spectrum Gigahertz Megahertz Nanometers Kilometers meters
Two Classes of Waves Transverse Waves Longitudinal Waves The particles vibrate in a direction that is parallel to the waves propagation (aka compression waves) The particles vibrate in a direction that is perpendicular to the waves propagation (direction of travel)
Parts of a Wave Crest: the top-most part of a wave Amplitude: the distance from the equilibrium line to the crest or to the trough (measure in meters) Wavelength (λ): the distance between two similar points on a wave (measured in meters) Trough: the bottom-most part of a wave
Wave Pulse One single Vibration or disturbance - The amplitude of SOUND ONLY tells you about the energy in the wave Longitudinal Pulse • Transverse Pulse One Crest Or One Trough One rarefaction Or One compression
Phase • The relative position between… • Two different points on the same wave • Phase is measured in degrees and follows the conventions of a sine curve. 90o One-quarter wavelength 180o Half wavelength 360o One fullwavelength Reference Point 0o 270o three-quarter wavelength
Phase • The relative position between… • Two similar points on different waves • Pick the same point on each wave and look at the difference between their relative positions 90o out of phase, 1/4 wave apart 180o out of phase, 1/2 wave apart 270o out of phase, 3/4 wave apart 360o out of phase, AKA IN PHASE 1 full wavelength apart
AIM: What affects the speed of a wave? How do we calculate a wave’s speed Homework Finish 1-47 in the blue book. Questions are posted on the website QUIZ ON THEM TOMORROW! Do NOW! Make a compare and contrast list of everything you know about sound waves and light waves
Sound Waves vs. Light Waves Sound Waves Light Waves Electromagnetic wave Transverse wave Amplitude tells you about intensity/brightness Frequency tells you about type of wave/color The speed of light in air is 3x108m/s Light slows down in solids • Mechanical Wave • Longitudinal wave • Amplitude tells you about volume • Frequency tells you about pitch • The speed of sound in air is about 330m/s • Sound travels faster in most solids than it does in air
Recall… • You are standing on a dock and observe 15 waves pass you in 1 minute. • What is the frequency of the waves? • What is the period of the wave? • What is the difference between a mechanical and electromagnetic wave? • What is the difference between a transverse and longitudinal wave?
standing wave • A wave that appears to be “standing still” and not moving either left or right. • - Particles seem to vibrate up and down • In order to create a standing wave, you need • - Two waves, moving in opposite directions, with the same amplitude and frequency Antinodes: points that move the most Nodes: points that don’t move
Measuring Parameters of a Wave • Goal: we are going to use a standing waveto measure and investigate the affect of the amplitude, frequency, period, and wavelengthon the speedof a transverse wave. • Prediction: Which of the four parameters do you think will affect the speed of the wave and why. • Background: in a paragraph, please define all bolded words above. • Diagram: Draw a diagram of a transverse wave and label all the parts of the wave. • Materials • Slinky, stopwatch, meter stick
Procedure • Measure 4m length across the floor and a 0.5m and 1m amplitude. • Have one person hold one end of the slinky still while having the other person generate a half wavelength standing wave with a 0.5m amplitude • Have 10 classmates time 20 complete oscillations of the wave. • Calculate the period, frequency and wave length for this trail and enter the numbers into the data table. • Repeat for a 1m amplitude then for 1 wave, 1.5 waves, 2 waves, 2.5 waves and possibly 3 waves. • Using the data table, try to determine how you would calculate the speed of the wave. • Once the speed for each wave is calculated, determine which parameters affect the speed of the wave and which don’t.
Analysis • Show a sample calculation for each of the following • Period of the wave • Frequency of the wave • Speed of the wave. • What formula did you come up with to calculate this? (hint: use the units!) • Percent difference between velocities. • Do they appear different? • Conclusion • Restate goal • What is the formula for the speed of the wave? • What parameters affect the speed, which don’t? • If the frequency was changed, did the speed or the wavelength change? • How could you change the speed of this wave? • Sources of error/one future experiment
Calculating the speed of a wave • A 5m long wave passes the end of a dock once every 10 seconds. • What is the period of the wave? • What is the speed of the wave? • A light wave has a frequency of 6MHz • What is the frequency in Hertz? • What is the speed of the wave? • What is the wavelength of the light? • What type of light wave is this?

3 Options The transmission of the lights on the inside of the building • When a wave hits a boundary, it does a combination of 3 things • Reflection • Bounces off the boundary • Absorption • Gets absorbed and turned into heat • Transmission • Goes through the boundary The reflection of the lights coming off the car on the outside of the building
Law of ReflectionHow to draw the diagram • The Law of Reflection states • Angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection Normal Line: A reference line always drawn perpendicular to the surface USE A PROTRACTOR!!!!

Reflection of Light • The bouncing of a wave off of a surface . • Regular reflection • Bouncing off of a Smooth surface • Mirrors, ponds • You can see an image of the object • Diffuse Reflection • Bouncing off of a Rough surface • The road, leaves, furniture, cloths • You can see light, but no image
Reflection of sound • The bouncing of a wave off of a surface. • Regular reflection • Bouncing off of a Smooth surface • ECHOs If the speed of sound in water is 1.5Km/s and the signal takes 0.8 seconds to come back to the boat, HOW DEEP IS THE WATER?
