Boundary Behavior• A sound wave travelling through water reflects off the

submarine and returns to its original source. • Does reflection of a wave affect the speed of the wave?

• The behavior of a wave (or pulse) upon reaching the end of a medium is referred to as boundary behavior.

Fixed-end Reflection

• Rope is connected to a pole.• The last particle is fixed at position and unable

to move.

Direction of wave. It is perpendicular to the wave fronts.

All the particles along the wave fronts are in phase. All are “crests” of a transverse wave

Refraction

• Consider transmission of the rope wave from less dense medium ( the thin rope) towards the boundary with a more dense medium (the thick rope).

• During the day the air is warmest near the ground and cooler away from ground.

• Sound wave closest to the ground is fastest, and the wave farthest above the ground is travelling the slowest.

• Day time – sound bends upwards.• A "shadow zone" region created in which sound wave cannot

penetrate. • Person standing in the shadow zone will not hear the sound

even though he/she might be able to see the source

Interference

• two waves meet while travelling along the same medium.

• net effect of the two individual waves.

Constructive interference Destructive interference

Page 21: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Constructive Interference

• occurs at any location along the medium where the two interfering waves have a displacement in the same direction.

• as a result, the medium has a resultant displacement which is greater than the displacement of the two interfering pulses.

Video: wave pool

Page 22: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

• occurs at any location along the medium where the two interfering waves have a displacement in the opposite direction.

• resultant displacement is either zero or smaller than the original displacement of both waves.

Destructive Interferenceapplet

After Interference?• Interestingly, the meeting of two waves along a medium does

not alter the individual waves or even deviate them from their path.

• two waves will meet, produce a resultant shape of the medium, and then continue on doing what they were doing before the interference.

Standing Wave• A standing wave pattern results from the

interference of two or more waves along the same medium.

• All standing wave patterns are characterized by nodes.

applet

Page 29: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Standing Wave - Nodes• Nodes occur when two waves interfere such that one wave is

displaced upward the same amount that a second wave is displaced downward.

• Destructive interference leads to a point of "no displacement." A node is a point of no displacement.

Page 30: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Standing Wave - Antinodes• There are other points along the medium which undergo

vibrations between a large positive and and large negative displacement.

• These are the points which undergo the maximum displacement during each vibrational cycle of the standing wave. In a sense, these points are the opposite of nodes, and so they are called antinodes.

Page 31: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Standing Wave• Standing wave can only be obtained when the proper frequency is used,

such that the interference of the incident wave and the reflected wave produces specific points along the medium which appear to be standing still nodes and the antinodes

• nodes and antinodes are not actually part of a wave. Recall that a standing wave is not actually a wave but rather a pattern which results from the interference of two or more waves.

Page 32: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Natural Frequency• Nearly all objects, when hit or struck or plucked or strummed

or somehow disturbed, will vibrate. If you drop a stick or pencil on the floor, it will begin to vibrate.

• The frequency or frequencies at which an object tends to vibrate when disturbed is the natural frequency of the object.

Page 33: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Natural Frequency

The actual frequency is dependent upon :

1. the properties of the material the object is made of (this affects the speed of the wave)

2. length of the material (this effects the wavelength of the wave).

Forced Vibration

• Pluck a guitar string compared to the same string mounted on a guitar.

• What is the difference?

Much louder when string on the guitar is plucked. Why?

Page 35: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Forced Vibration• When the string is attached to the sound box of the guitar,

the vibrating string forces the sound box to vibrate at its natural frequency.

• The sound box in turn forces air particles inside the box to vibrate at the same natural frequency as the string.

Sound box

Page 36: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Forced Vibration

• The entire system (string, guitar, and enclosed air) vibrates and forces surrounding air particles into vibrational motion.

• The tendency of one object to force an adjoining object into vibrational motion is referred to as a forced vibration.

Resonance

• Resonance occurs when one object vibrating at the same natural frequency of a second object forces that second object into vibrational motion.

• Result of resonance is always a very large vibration.

• Plastic tube with air column

Resonance - Experiment

When the natural frequency of the air column is tuned to the frequency of the vibrating tuning fork, resonance occurs and a loud sound results.

Resonance occurs at odd multiples of /4ג . Why?

Page 40: Wave Behavior Reflection Refraction Diffraction Reflection Refraction Diffraction Interference Doppler Effect Interference Doppler Effect

Resonance – Standing wave

• When an object is forced into resonance vibrations at one of its natural frequencies, it vibrates in a manner such that a standing wave is formed within the object.

• Such patterns are only created within the medium at specific frequencies of vibration. These frequencies are known as harmonic frequencies or merely harmonics.
