  2. Vibrations and Waves

  3. What is Vibrations?

  4. What is Vibrations?

  5. Vibrations • Vibration: A wiggle in time is a vibration • A vibration cannot exist in one instant, but needs time to move back and forth • Mechanical oscillations about an equilibrium point

  6. Vibrations • Period (T): The amount of time required for a vibrating particle to return to its original position (one cycle). A complete back-and-forth vibration is one cycle. The unit of period is second (s)

  7. Vibrations • Frequency (f): The number of back-and-forth vibrations it makes in a given time. The unit of frequency is called hertz (Hz). One Hz is one cycle or vibration per second

  8. Frequency • Frequency unit: • 1 kilohertz (kHz— thousands of hertz) = 1 x 103 Hz • 1 megahertz (MHz— millions of hertz) = 1 x 106 Hz • 1 gigahertz (GHz— billions of hertz) = 1 x 109 Hz • frequency = 1/period and period = 1/frequencyf = 1/T and T = 1/f

  9. Frequency Example • If an electromagnetic wave has frequency 5.0 x 106 Hz, what is the period of the wave? What type of wave is that?

  10. Frequency Example • If an electromagnetic wave has period 2.0 x 10-9s, what is the frequency of the wave? What type of wave is that?

  11. Frequency • High frequency and low frequency

  12. What is Wave?

  13. sound waves light waves radio waves microwaves water waves stadium waves earthquake waves rope waves slinky waves Waves

  14. Waves • Wave: A wiggle in space and time is a wave • A wave cannot exist in one place, but must extend from one place to another • Disturbances that transfer energy from one place to another

  15. Waves • Crest and Trough: The high points of a wave are called crests, and the low points of a wave are called troughs

  16. Waves • Amplitude (A): refers to the distance from the midpoint to the crest (or trough) of the wave. So the amplitude equals the maximum displacement from equilibrium

  17. Waves • Wavelength (λ): The distance between successive identical parts of the wave such as from the top of one crest to the top of the next one

  18. Wavelength Crest Amplitude Distance Trough Waves Wave Period Amplitude Time Vibration

  19. Aim: Speed of WavesDoNow: • Non-digital clocks have a second hand that rotates around in a regular and repeating fashion. The frequency of rotation of a second hand on a clock is _______ Hz • An echo (reflection of the scream off a nearby canyon wall) is heard 0.82 seconds after the scream. The speed of the sound wave in air is 342 m/s. Calculate the distance from the person to the nearby canyon wall

  20. Aim: Speed of WavesDoNow: • Non-digital clocks have a second hand that rotates around in a regular and repeating fashion. The frequency of rotation of a second hand on a clock is __1/60__ Hz • An echo (reflection of the scream off a nearby canyon wall) is heard 0.82 seconds after the scream. The speed of the sound wave in air is 342 m/s. Calculate the distance from the person to the nearby canyon wall __ 140 m__

  21. Speed of Waves

  22. Waves • wave speed = wavelength x frequency = wavelength / period v = f =  / T where v is the wave speed [m/s]  is the wavelength [m] f is the wave frequency [Hz] T is the wave period [s] • This relationship holds for all kinds of waves

  23. Waves • The long wavelengths have low frequencies; the shorter wavelengths have higher frequencies • Wavelength and frequency vary inversely to produce the same speed for all waves

  24. Wave Example • The time required for the sound waves (v = 340 m/s) to travel from the 512-Hz tuning fork to 20 m away is?

  25. Wave Example • The time required for the sound waves (v = 340 m/s) to travel from the 512-Hz tuning fork to 20 m away is? [0.059 s]

  26. Wave Example • Mac and Tosh are resting on top of the water near the end of the pool when Mac creates a surface wave. The wave travels the length of the pool and back in 25 seconds. The pool is 25 meters long. Determine the speed of the wave.

  28. Wave Example • The water waves travel at a speed of 2.5 m/s and splashing periodically against Wilbert's perch. Each adjacent crest is 5 meters apart. The crests splash Wilbert's feet upon reaching his perch. How much time passes between each successive drenching?

  37. Types of Waves

  38. Transverse Waves • Transverse Waves Whenever the motion of the medium is at right angles to the direction in which a wave travels

  39. Longitudinal Waves • Longitudinal Waves Whenever the particles of the medium moves back-and-forth along the direction of the wave rather than at right angles to it

  40. Combination of Waves • Combination of Transverse & Longitudinal Waves Water waves are an example of a combination of both longitudinal and transverse motions. The particles travel in clockwise circles

  41. Longitudinal or Transverse?

  42. Interference

  43. Interference • More than one vibration or wave can exist at the same time in the same space

  44. Interference • The principle of superposition of waves states that the resultant displacement at a point is equal to the vector sum of the displacements of different waves at that point

  45. Constructive Interference • The two waves are in-phase with each other they add together

  46. Constructive Interference • The two waves are in-phase with each other they add together

  47. Destructive Interference • The two waves are 180° out-of-phase with each other they cancel

  48. Destructive Interference • The two waves are 180° out-of-phase with each other they cancel

  49. Interference Patterns • Two waves overlap each other will form an interference pattern

  50. Interference Patterns • Gray “spokes”: zero amplitude • Dark- & light-striped: crests of one wave overlap the crests of another, and the troughs overlap as well
