Waves on Strings, etc.:Transverse Waves Sound Waves:ANY Longitudinal Waves 1. Sound Waves These are material waves.
s(x,t)= smcos(kx-wt) s:The displacement from the equilibrium position The sin and cos functions are identical for the wave function, differing only in a phase constant. We use cos in this chapter. sin(q+90˚)=cosq y(x,t)= ymsin(kx-wt) Wave Function Transverse wave
∆p(x,t)= ∆pmsin(kx-wt) ∆p: the pressure change in the medium due to compression (∆p >0) or expansion (∆p <0) Pressure Amplitude ∆p(x,t) ands(x,t)are 90˚ out of phase
Transverse Waves (String): Tension elastic Linear density inertial elastic Bulk modulus inertial Volume density Bulk modulus 2. Wave Speed Sound Waves (Longitudinal Waves):
Transverse Waves (String): Sound Waves (Longitudinal Waves): A: area intercepting the sound 3. Intensity
Wavefront, Ray, and Spherical Waves Wavefront:Equal phase surfaces Spherical: spherical waves Planar: planar waves Ray:The line wavefront, that indicates the direction of travel of the wavefront At large radius (far from a point source): spherical wavefront planar wavefront
Sound Intensity for a Point Source Wavefront area at distance r from the source: A = 4pr2
The Decibel Scale The sound level b is defined as: decibel 10-12 W/m2, human hearing threshold

Standing Waves in a Tube BOUNDARY CONDITIONS: Closed End: s = 0, a node for s ∆p = ∆pm, an antinode for ∆p Open End: s = sm, an antinode for s ∆p = 0, a node for ∆p
The time interval between the two sounds: Solve for l: HRW 9P(5th ed.). A man strikes a long aluminum rod at one end. A woman at the other end with her ear close to to the rod, hears the sound of the blow twice (once through air and once through the rod), with a 0.120 s interval between. How long is the rod? Let the length of the rod be l, the speed of sound in air be v1, and the speed of sound in the rod be v2.
∆p(x,t)= ∆p msin(kx-wt) s(x,t)= smcos(kx-wt) HRW 18P(5th ed.). The pressure in a traveling sound wave is given by the equation ∆p = (1.5 Pa) sin p[(1.00 m-1)x - (330 s-1)t]. Find (a) the pressure amplitude, (b) the frequency, (c) the wavelength, and (d) the speed of the wave. (a) ∆pm = 1.5 Pa (b) f = w/2p =(330 s-1)/2 =165 Hz (c) l=2p/k = 2p /(1.00 m-1) p=2 m (d) v = lf =330 m/s
The phase difference at point P: HRW 23P(5th ed.). Two point sources of sound waves of identical wavelength l and amplitude are separated by distance D = 2.0l. The sources are in phase. (a) How many points of maximum signal lie along a large circle around the sources? (b) How many points of minimum signal? (a) Maximum: ∆f=2mp sinq = m/2 (m=0, ±1, ±2, …) Eight: 0˚, 30˚, 90˚, 150˚, 180˚, 210˚, 270˚, 330˚ (b) Eight, in between the maximums.
