1 Reflection and Transmission of string wave

2 Equation of motion of transverse string-wave

3 Characteristic impedance of a string

4 T T  2, c 2  1, c 1 x=0 Transmitted wave Reflected wave Incident wave

5 displacement of incident, reflected and transmitted wave

6 Boundary conditions at x=0 (I)Continuity of displacement (II)Continuity of transverse force

7 From (I) At x = 0

8 From (II) where,

9 Reflection coefficient of amplitude Transmission coefficient of amplitude

10 For Z 2 >>Z 1 Wave is completely reflected with a phase change 

13 For Z 2 =0 Wave is flinched at the boundary

14 Reflection of a pulse of arbitrary shape From Pain

15 Characteristic of reflected pulse from less dense medium Inverted Smaller amplitude Same speed and wavelength as those of incident pulse

16 Characteristic of transmitted pulse from less dense medium Not inverted Smaller amplitude Smaller speed and wavelength compared to those of incident Pulse Handshake principle

17 Standing wave

18 Standing wave on a string

19 Superposition of monochromatic wave of frequency  and amplitude a traveling in +x direction and frequency  and amplitude a traveling in –x direction

20 Boundary conditions

21 Also, n=1,2,3……. Allowed frequency (from dispersion relation ) Normal frequencies / modes.

22 Normal mode frequencies

23 Taking real part of the solution Satisfies the wave equation

24 Fundamental mode/First harmonic t=0 t1t1 t2t2 t3t3 t4t4 t1<t2<t3<t4t1<t2<t3<t4

25 2 nd Harmonic/First overtone t2t2 t1t1 t=0 t3t3 t4t4 t1<t2<t3<t4t1<t2<t3<t4

26 Lowest three natural frequencies of a string Fundamental/1st n = 1 2 nd harmonic n = 2 3 rd harmonic n = 3 4 th harmonic n = 4 & so on.

27 Nodal points For each harmonic, positions along the string where r = 0, 1, 2,3…. (n-1) nodes for n th harmonics

28 How Violin Works Standing Waves

29 In a steel rod of length L and cross sectional area A, the longitudinal stationary disturbance is of the form What is the instantaneous kinetic energy per unit volume? For a volume element  x K.E= K.E per unit vol. =

30 What is the instantaneous potential energy per unit volume? For a volume element  x P.E= P.E per unit vol. =

31 Time evolution of kinetic and potential energy t=0 t1t1 t1t1 t2t2 t2t2 t3t3 t3t3 t4t4 t4t4

32 Show time average of k.e and p.e (per unit volume) is a constant
