Waves Practice

A wave is known to have a frequency of 1.5 Hz, wavelength of 4.0 cm, and amplitude of 0.75 cm when it is on high tension. Try the problems, then use the simulation to check your answer if you need to.

Required

Identify the crest.

Required

Identify the trough.

Required

Identify the equilibrium.

Required

Identify the wavelength.

Required

Identify the amplitude.

Required

If the amplitude of the wave is doubled, the wave will have a resulting frequency that is:

Required

If the frequency of the original wave is doubled, the wave will have a resulting amplitude that is:

Required

If the frequency of the original wave is doubled, the wave will have a resulting wavelength that is:

Required

If the amplitude of the wave is doubled, the wave will have a resulting velocity that __________.

Required

Using the information for the original wave, the wave velocity is:

Echolocation Practice

A bat chasing a moth emits a sequence of three chirps (speed of sound = 350 m/s) every 0.010 seconds and later hears the echos of the chirps as detailed in the diagram.

Required

Estimate how much time passed between the first chirp and the return of the first echo.

Required

Estimate the relative distance to the moth when the bat hears the first echo.

Required

Estimate the relative distance to the moth when the bat hears the third echo.
