1. A wave travels 2m2m every 2 cycles. What is
its wavelength?
2. What is the frequency of a wave whose wavelength
is 0.7m and whose velocity is 120m/s?
3. What component of a longitudinal sound wave is analogous
to a trough of a transverse wave?
4. What properties does a loud, shrill whistle have?
a.) high amplitude, high frequency
b.) high amplitude, low frequency
c.) low amplitude, high frequency
d.) low amplitude, low frequency
5.) Is a sonic boom heard by the passengers traveling in a
supersonic aircraft? Why or why not?
a.) they do not experience any shift in frequency because they
are traveling at the same speed as that of the sound source.
b.) They do not experience any shift because they are traveling
at a lower speed than that of the sound source.
c.) They will experience a small shift in frequency because they
are traveling at a lower speed than that of the sound source.
d.) They will experience a large shift in frequency because they
are traveling at a greater speed than that of the sound source.
