Waves
The wave carries the disturbance, but not the water
Each point makes a simple harmonic vertical oscillation

– Periodic wave – is regular frequency continuing for may cycles
– Wave pulse - is a disturbance of short duration
Mechanical waves – Require medium for propagation – Waves move through medium – Medium remains in place
Electromagnetic waves (light) do not require medium

Types of waves
Transversal: movement is perpendicular to the wave motion

oscillation
Longitudinal: movement is in the direction of the wave motion

Longitudinal (Compression) Waves
Sound waves are longitudinal waves Elements move parallel to wave motion

Describing a traveling wave
While the wave has traveled one wavelength, each point on the rope has made one period of oscillation.
λ: wavelength distance between two maxima. f: frequency of oscillations
vwave =λT= λ f

Speed of a Wave in a Vibrating String
€
v =Tµwhere µ =
mL
For different kinds of waves: (e.g. sound) • Always a square root • Numerator related to restoring force • Denominator is some sort of mass density
L, m
screw tension T

Why does it matter?
€
λf = v
€
f =vλ
Higher tension T à higher frequency, because (for the same wavelength and same string) • Reverse is true (smaller T, lower f)
Higher density μ à lower frequency
€
v =Tµ
or
change T or change μ

Sound wave speed
€
v = γpρ
γ = adiabatic index p = pressure ρ = density
Air: γ ~ 1.4, p ~ 1 atm ~ 100 Pa ρ ~ 1.2 kg/m³
à vair ~ 331 m/s

The frequency of sound
• We hear frequencies of sound as having different pitch.
• A low frequency sound has a low pitch, like the rumble of a big truck.
• A high-frequency sound has a high pitch, like a whistle or siren.
• In speech, women have higher fundamental frequencies than men.
