2. Harmonic Motion and Waves in the Real World: Harmonic Motion: springs (car shocks, slinkys, DNA molecules) –Pendulums (clocks, swings, skyscrapers) –Periodic motion: orbiting satellites, planets, stars, galaxies Waves: Sound –Sonar (bats, submarines) –Ultrasound (reflection/transmission of waves depends on density) Waves: Light (Electromagnetic waves) –X-rays (see Ultrasound) –Lasers (pointers, grocery stores, cat toys, space weapons) –Radio (AM/FM, satellite), TV (broadcast) –Microwave (microwave ovens, cordless phones, cell phones) Waves: Compressional (density waves) –Traffic slowdowns –Spiral galaxies –Sound

11. Two sound waves combine to form beats, which occur 3 times a second. Two different sound waves combine to form a different set of beats, which occur 2 times a second. For which pair of waves is the frequency difference greater? 1.The first pair (3 beats a second) 2.The second pair (2 beats a second) 3.Same for both 4.Need more info

18. Doppler shift source moves toward detector  shorter (higher f) source moves away from detector  longer (higher f)

19. detector moves away from source  longer (higher f) detector moves toward source  shorter (higher f) Doppler shift

20. Doppler shift formula f’ = f (v  v D ) _____ (v  v S )

21. Two sound waves travel in the same region and thus interfere with each other. What is required to produce 100% destructive interference? 10 0 of 70 1.Waves have same frequency 2.Waves have same amplitude 3.Waves differ in phase by  radians 4.All of the above 5.None of the above

22. Joe hears a fire engine siren coming towards him at speed v. For Jane to hear the identical pitch (frequency) from the siren of a stationary fire engine, she would have to: 10 0 of 70 1.Be standing still 2.Be moving towards the fire engine at speed v 3.Be moving towards the fire engine at some other speed 4.Be moving away from the fire engine at speed v 5.Need more info

23. A submerged submarine sends a sonar wave into the surrounding ocean, and it (the wave) reflects off a distant object. If the sub is moving away from the object that reflects the sonar wave, the frequency of the reflected wave is 10 0 of 70 1.Smaller than 2.Equal to 3.Larger than 4.(depends on motion of distant object) 5.(need more info) … the frequency of the emitted wave
