Problem 12.1 An ultrasonic wave at  10 4 Hz is emitted into a vein where the speed of sound is about 1.5 km.s -1. The wave reflects off the red blood cells moving towards the stationary receiver. If the frequency of the returning signal is  10 4 Hz, what is the speed of the blood flow? What would be the beat frequency detected and the beat period? Draw a diagram showing the beat pattern and indicate the beat period. [Ans: 0.19 m.s -1 ]

Problem 12.2 Describe the motion of a bungee jump in terms of the key physical principles. (1) Assume no dissipative forces (2) Assume non-zero dissipative forces

Problem 12.3 A simple apparatus for demonstrating resonance in an air column is using a tuning fork and a hollow pipe which is moved up and down in the water to locate the resonance frequencies. The smallest value of L for which a peak occurs in the sound intensity is 90.0 mm. What is the frequency of the tuning fork? The value of L for the next two resonance frequencies? Speed of sound in air, v = 343 m.s -1 [Ans: 953 Hz, m m] L

Problem 12.4 Oil (n = 1.20) leaking from a damaged tanker creates a large oil slick on the harbour (n = 1.33). In order to determine the thickness of the oil slick, a plane is flown when the Sun is overhead. The sunlight reflected directly below the plane is found to have intensity maxima at 450 nm and 600 nm, and no wavelengths in between. What is the thickness of the oil slick? [Ans 750 nm]

PHYS 1002 Exam, 2002 Q11c In air (n = 1.00) light is incident normally on a thin film with an index of refraction n = The film covers a glass lens of refractive index What is the minimum thickness of the film to minimise reflection of blue light (400 nm)? 1 dthin film

(a) Explain the meaning of the concepts of constructive and destructive interference when applied to two monochromatic waves. You can draw diagrams showing the waves produced by two sources as part of your answer. (b)When light reflects off a surface it can have zero change in phase or a  change in phase. What is the significance of the refractive index in determining this change upon reflection? (c)A fused silica lens of refractive index 1.46 is surrounded by air. Explain why a ‘quarter wavelength’ thick magnesium fluoride (refractive index of 1.38) coating over the front surface of the lens can reduce reflections and hence increase the amount of light transmitted through the lens. (d)Light from a helium neon laser (wavelength 633 nm) is normally incident upon the coated lens described in part (c). What is the minimum thickness of the film that will result in minimum reflected intensity PHYS 1002 Exam, Question 12

Workshop Tutorial 12: Waves, Quantitative Question c, d, e A source with a frequency of 5.00x10 6 Hz is used to measure a patients blood flow rate. The speed of sound in blood is 1570 m.s -1. The changes in frequency are some so ignore the usual rules for significant figures and quote your answers to an integer number of Hz c. If the blood flow is away from the machine at 20 mm.s -1, what will be the frequency received by the cells? d. What will the frequency received by the detector in the ultrasound machine? e.Given this average blood velocity, how is it possible that the pulse pressure wave produced by the heart reaches the feet in less tan 1 s?
