Chapter 16: Q. 5 (page 451)

Draw the history graph D(x = 0 m, t) at x = 0 m for the wave shown in FIGURE EX16.5.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The history graph of the wave is shown.

Step by step solution

01

Write the given information 

The snapshot graph of the wave is given at time t =0 sec
The velocity of the wave is given as v= 1 m/.sec
The wave is traveling from right to left direction

02

To draw the history graph of the wave at distance x= 0 m

A snapshot graph shows the displacement of the wave with respect to the position at a given time.
A history graph show the displacement of the wave with respect to the time at a given position.

Analyse the snapshot graph

  • With every second, wave travels 1-meter to the left
  • The wave would travel 4-meters in 4 seconds

The history graph is shown below.

Show that the displacement D(x,t)=cx2+dt2, where c and d are constants, is a solution to the wave equation. Then find an expression in terms of c and d for the wave speed.

A communications truck with a 44-cm-diameter dish receiver on the roof starts out 10 km from its base station. It drives directly away from the base station at 50 km/h for 1.0 h, keeping the receiver pointed at the base station. The base station antenna broadcasts continuously with 2.5 kW of power, radiated uniformly in all directions. How much electromagnetic energy does the truck鈥檚 dish receive during that 1.0 h?

Show that the displacement D(x, t) = ln(ax + bt) , where a and b are constants, is a solution to the wave equation. Then find an expression in terms of a and b for the wave speed.

A bat locates insects by emitting ultrasonic 鈥渃hirps鈥� and then listening for echoes from the bugs. Suppose a bat chirp has a frequency of 25 kHz. How fast would the bat have to fly, and in what direction, for you to just barely be able to hear the chirp at 20 kHz?
