A signal is described by the function D(t)=Ce-|t|/t.

(a) Calculate the Fourier transform A(Ó¬). Sketch and interpret your result.

(b) How are D(t)and A(Ó¬)affected by a change in t ?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The Fourier transform is AÓ¬=Ct2Ï€21+tÓ¬2.

(b) The Fourier transform AÓ¬is inversely proportional to t and Dtis directly proportional to t.

Step by step solution

01

Fourier transform:

The Fourier transform is a mathematical function that decomposes a waveform that is a function of time into the frequencies that make it up. The result produced by the Fourier transform is a complex valued function of frequency.

The Fourier transform is given byA(k)=12π∫-∞∞ψ(x)e-ikxdx.

(a) Find Fourier transform:

The Fourier transform of the functionDtis given by:

AӬ=12π∫-∞∞Dte-iӬtdt=12π∫-∞∞Ce-iӬtdt=C2π∫-∞0ette-iӬtdt+C2π∫0∞ette-iӬtdt=C2π∫-∞0et1t-iӬdt+C2π∫0∞et1t-iӬdt

Solve the above equation further:

AÓ¬==C2Ï€11t-iÓ¬+11t+iÓ¬=C2Ï€21+tÓ¬2

Thus, the Fourier transform is AÓ¬=Ct2Ï€21+tÓ¬2.

This is not an oscillatory function but an even function whose maximum occurs atӬ=0such thatAӬ=Ctπ. As there is an inverse relation between∆Ӭand time interval∆t. So, the value ofAӬapproaches 0 ast→±∞. So, the graph can be obtained as:

(b) Define how D(t) and A(ω) affected by a charge in t: 

The width of the function AӬis approximately equal to the distance between the points of half maximum. At Ӭt=±1, the half maximum occurs, which implies Ӭ=±1t. So, the value of Awis directly proportional to t. The function Dtis exponentially decaying function is direct proportionality to t.

Thus, Awis inversely proportional to tand Dtis directly proportional to t.

The well-known sodium doublet is two yellow spectral lines of very close wavelength.589.0nmand 589.0nmIt is caused by splitting of the 3p energy level. due to the spin-orbit interaction. In its ground state, sodium's single valence electron is in the level. It may be excited to the next higher level. the 3p , then emit a photon as it drops back to the 3s . However. the 3p is actually two levels. in which Land Sare aligned and anti-aligned. (In the notation of Section 8.7 these are. respectively. the3ÒÏ3/2and 3p1n.)the because the (transitions Stan from slightly different initial energies yet have identical final energies(the 3shaving no orbital angular momentum to lead to spin-orbit interaction), there are two different wavelengths possible for the emitted photon. Calculate the difference in energy between the two photons. From this, obtain a rough value of the average strength of the internal magnetic field experienced by sodium's valence electron.

A plank fixed to a sled at rest in frame S, is of length L0and makes an angle of θ0with the x-axis. Later the sled zooms through frame S at a constant speed v parallel to the x-axis. Show that according to an observer who remains at rest in frame S, the length of the plank is now

L=L01-v2c2³¦´Ç²õθ0

And the angle it makes with the x-axis is

θ=tan-1(γvtanθ0)
