Chapter 17: Q77P (page 511)

In Fig. 17-45, sound wavesAandB, both of wavelength位, are initially in phase and traveling rightward, as indicated by the two rays. Wave Ais reflected from four surfaces but ends up traveling in its original direction. What multiple of wavelength位is the smallest value of distanceLin the figure that puts Aand Bexactly out of phase with each other after the reflections?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The multiple of wavelength, which is the smallest value of distance, is0.25

Step by step solution

01

The given data

Two waves are out of phase.

02

Understanding the concept of interference

Here we can use the concept of interference. When two waves are out of phase, the phase difference between them is 蟺. We can find the multiple wavelengths using this concept.

Formula:

The phase of a wave,

蠁=螖尝位2蟺 鈥�(颈)

03

Calculation of the multiple of wavelength

Here, the additional length travelled by wave A is vertical zig zag, and that is equal to 2L.

Here we are given that waves are out of phase. Hence, the phase angle using equation (i) and given values is given as:蟺=2L位2蟺

Also the path difference should be equal to蟺since the waves are out of phase.

2L=位2L位=14L位=0.25L=0.25位

Hence, the value of the multiple is 0.25.

(That air-filled top portion acts as a tube with one closed and the other end open)(a) For how many different positions of the water level will sound from the fork set up resonance in the tube鈥檚 air-filled portion, which acts as a pipe with one end closed (by the water) and the other end open? What are the (b) least (c) second least water heights in the tube for resonance to occur?
