1. Chapter 19 Vibration and Waves Herriman High Physics

2. Simple Harmonic Motion  When a vibration or an oscillation repeats itself back and forth over the same path, the motion is said to be periodic.  The most common oscillation come from springs and you will recall from earlier chapters that the description of a spring’s oscillation requires some vocabulary. Herriman High Physics

3. Simplest Form of Oscillation A Pendulum If you suspend any object from a string and swing it back and forth, you have created a pendulum. Each back and forth motion of this pendulum is one cycles, and the time it takes to make that motion is called its period. Which is calculated according to the equation: Herriman High Physics

4. Sample Problem  A pendulum is 2 meters long. What is its period on earth where gravity is 9.8 m/s 2 ?  What would the period of the same pendulum be on the moon where gravity is 1.63 m/s 2 ? Herriman High Physics

5. Solution On Earth On the moon Herriman High Physics

6. Oscillation of a Mass on a Spring Top picture is “rest position”; x = 0  Bottom picture is “stretched position” Here x represents the displacement. Maximum displacement is called the amplitude. One cycle refers to one complete to and fro motion. The period, T represents the time for one cycle. The frequency, f is the number of cycles in a given time period, usually one second. Herriman High Physics

7. Relationship between Frequency and Period  Frequency – the number of cycles in one second  Period – the time required to complete one cycle.  Hence the relationship between period and frequency is: F = 1/T or T = 1/F  Where period is measured in seconds and frequency is measured in hertz (hz) which is 1/seconds. Herriman High Physics

8. Waves  Waves are a form of periodic motion.  Two types of Waves (classified by movement) Transverse  Wave moves perpendicular to amplitude Longitudinal  Wave moves parallel to the amplitude Classified by medium Mechanical  Require a Medium Electromagnetic  Do not require a medium Herriman High Physics

9. Wave Vocabulary  For a Transverse Wave Top – Crest Bottom – trough Wavelength (λ) – distance from crest to crest or trough to trough Frequency – number of waves or cycles per second Velocity – speed of wave Herriman High Physics

10. Wave Vocabulary  For a Longitudinal Wave front – compression Back – rarefaction Wavelength (λ) – distance from compression to compression or rarefaction to rarefaction Frequency – number of waves or cycles per second Velocity – speed of wave Herriman High Physics

11. The Wave Equation  By Definition V = fλ  Where v = wave velocity (meters/second) f = wave frequency (hertz) λ = wavelength in meters. Herriman High Physics

12. Sample Problem  A boy sitting on a beach notices that 10 waves come to shore in 2 minutes. He also notices that the waves seem to be about 20 meters apart as they travel on the ocean. What is the frequency of the waves? What is the velocity of the waves? Herriman High Physics

13. Solution  f = waves/second = 10/120 = 0.083 hertz  V =fλ =(0.083 hz)(20 meters) = 1.66 m/s Herriman High Physics

14. Interference  When two waves pass through each other they are said to form an interference pattern.  There are two types of interference pattern: Constructive interference  Waves reinforce each other Destructive interference  Waves cancel each other Herriman High Physics

15. Standing Waves  When a wave and its reflection reinforce each other they form a standing wave. In a standing wave the parts which don’t move are called nodes and the parts which move are called anti-nodes. Nodes are a results of destructive interference and anti-nodes come from constructive interference. Herriman High Physics

16. The Doppler Effect  When a person listening to a sound is moving and/or the source of the sound is moving you get the Doppler effect.  When they are getting closer together the sound that is heard is of a higher frequency than the original.  When they are moving apart, the sound that is heard is of a lower frequency than the original. Herriman High Physics

17. Bow and Shock Waves  When a source moves as fast or faster than a wave in a media it creates a bow wave. If this is in air then the shock wave is three dimensional and is called a sonic boom. Herriman High Physics

18. Chapter 20 Sound Herriman High Physics

19. The Origin of Sound  Sound is a longitudinal, mechanical wave.  You can hear sound with a frequency of 20 – 20,000 Hz. Under 20 hz is infrasonic, and above 20,000 hz is ultrasonic.  We talk about the frequency of sound when it is produced, and the pitch of sound when we hear it. Herriman High Physics

20. The Speed of Sound  The speed of sound depends upon the media in which it travels.  The speed of sound in air is 330 m/s at 0° Centigrade.  The speed of sound increases by 0.6 m/s for every 1°C increase in temperature in air. Herriman High Physics

21. Loudness  When a sound is produced it has a certain intensity. This is defined as: I = Power/Area  Or intensity is measured as the ratio of power divided by the area when the sound is produced. 1.Loudness is a sensation when we hear a sound. Different people react differently to the same intensity. In other words the same level of sound has a different “loudness” to different people. Herriman High Physics

22. Forced Vibration and Natural Frequency  When a vibrating object is placed in contact with another object, the second object will also begin to vibrate. This is known as a force vibration.  An object’s natural frequency is one at which it takes a minimum energy to cause it to vibrate.  All object have a natural frequency at which they vibrate easily and if that frequency is within the range of human hearing – the object makes a sound. Herriman High Physics

23. Resonance  When a force vibration matches an objects natural frequency – an increase in amplitude occurs which is known as resonance.  Resonance in an instrument occurs when reflected waves are multiples of the natural frequency and these harmonics make a stronger, richer sound.

25. Law of Pipes  For an Open Pipe (open at both ends) λ ≈ 2l  For a Closed Pipe (open at one end) λ ≈ 4l  In an open pipe all harmonics are present and in a closed pipe only the odd harmonics are present. Herriman High Physics

26. Sample Problem  If a pipe is 2 meters long at 0° C: What is its fundamental frequency and first two harmonics if it is:  Open  closed Herriman High Physics

27. Solution  Open pipe: λ≈2l = 2(2 m) = 4 meters f = V/λ = 330/4 = 82.5 Hz 2 nd Harmonic = 2(82.5) = 165 Hz 3 rd Harmonic = 3(82.5) = 247.5 Hz  Closed Pipe λ≈4l = 4(2 m) = 8 meters f = V/λ = 330/8 = 41.25 Hz 3 rd Harmonic = 3(41.25) = 123.75 Hz 5 th Harmonic = 5(41.25) = 206.25 Hz Herriman High Physics

28. Law of Strings  There are four laws which govern the frequency of a string: Length: Diameter: Tension: Density: Herriman High Physics

29. Sample Problem  A violin string has a frequency of 340 Hz when it is 1 meter long. What is its frequency when it is shortened to ½ meter?  When a guitar string is under a tension of 200 newtons it plays a frequency of 330 hz, what will it play if it is tightened to 450 newtons?
