• result from periodic disturbance • same period () as source 1 f  • Longitudinal or Transverse Waves  • Characterized by – (how far do the “bits” move from their equilibrium positions? Amplitude of MEDIUM) – period or frequency (how long does it take for each “bit” to go through one cycle?) – (over what distance does the cycle repeat in a freeze frame?) – speed (how fast is the energy transferred?) vf  v Wavelength and Frequency are Inversely related: f   The shorter the wavelength, the higher the frequency. The longer the wavelength, the lower the frequency.

Sound String Wave PULSE:

• traveling disturbance • transfers energy and momentum • no bulk motion of the medium • comes in two flavors • LONGitudinal • TRANSverse Traveling Pulse

• For a pulse traveling to the right – y (x, t) = f (x – vt) • For a pulse traveling to the left – y (x, t) = f (x + vt) • The function y is also called the wave function: y (x, t) • The wave function represents the y coordinate of any element located at position x at any time t – The y coordinate is the transverse position • If t is fixed then the wave function is called the – It defines a curve representing the actual geometric shape of the pulse at that time Traveling Pulse 2 y(,) x t  Wave Form (xt 3 )2 1 Space Snap Shots 2 @t 0 s , y ( x ,0) (x )2  1

This gives the relationship between the wavelength and frequency for constant wave speed. The frequency depends on the source and the speed depends on the properties of the medium. The speed of sound is independent of the frequency. When traveling from one medium to another, if the speed changes, the wavelength changes but the frequency (energy) remains the same.
