Lab Homework – Waves
This homework will be due when you come to lab the week of May 1.
1) A pulse of the shape shown below propagates to the right along a string with velocity
v. Describe in detail the motion of particle A on the string as the pulse goes by. Be sure to
indicate
(i) the direction in which A is moving at various points along the pulse
(ii) and whether the velocity of A is increasing, decreasing or zero at these various points.
2) The diagram below shows two pulses on a string at time t = 0. The pulses are moving toward each other, the speed of each pulse is 2.5m/s. ON A
SEPARATE SHEET OF GRAPH PAPER sketch the shape of the string at 0.60, 0.80
and 0.90s. (Graphs sketched on notebook paper rather than graph paper will receive no
credit.) 1 3) A standing wave has nodes at x = 0 cm, x = 6.0 cm, x = 12.0 cm, and x = 18.0 cm.
What is the wavelength of the waves that are interfering to produce this standing wave?
At what positions are the antinodes? 2
