Chapter 16: Q. 6 (page 451)

Draw the snapshot graph D(x, t = 0 s) at t = 0 s for the wave shown in FIGURE EX16.6.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The snapshot graph of the wave has been shown

Step by step solution

01

Write the given information 

The history graph of the wave is given at distance x=2m
The velocity of the wave is given as v= 1 m/.sec
The wave is traveling to the right.

02

To draw the snapshot graph of the wave at time t= 0 sec 

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


Analyze the history graph

  • With every second, the wave travels 1-meter to the right
  • In 4 seconds, the wave would travel 4-meters


The snapshot graph is shown below.

A wire is made by welding together two metals having different densities. FIGURE P16.59 shows a 2.00-m-long section of wire centered on the junction, but the wire extends much farther in both directions. The wire is placed under 2250 N tension, then a 1500 Hz wave with an amplitude of 3.00 mm is sent down the wire. How many wavelengths (complete cycles) of the wave are in this 2.00-m-long section of the wire?

Wavelengths of light from a distant galaxy are found to be

0.50% longer than the corresponding wavelengths measured in a terrestrial laboratory. Is the galaxy approaching or receding from the earth? At what speed?

Some modern optical devices are made with glass whose index of refraction changes with distance from the front surface. FIGURE CP16.84 shows the index of refraction as a function of the distance into a slab of glass of thickness L. The index of refraction increases linearly from n1 at the front surface to n2 at the rear surface. a. Find an expression for the time light takes to travel through this piece of glass. b. Evaluate your expression for a 1.0-cm-thick piece of glass for which n1 = 1.50 and n2 = 1.60.
