The correct Answer is:
To prove the relations \( A_r = \frac{(v_2 - v_1)}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \) and \( A_t = \frac{2v_2}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \) using the principle of energy conservation, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Power Relationship**: The average power of the incident wave \( P_i \) is equal to the sum of the average power of the reflected wave \( P_r \) and the average power of the transmitted wave \( P_t \). This can be expressed as: \[ P_i = P_r + P_t \] 2. **Write the Power Formulas**: The average power for a wave can be expressed as: \[ P = \frac{1}{2} \mu \omega^2 A^2 v \] where \( \mu \) is the linear mass density, \( \omega \) is the angular frequency, \( A \) is the amplitude, and \( v \) is the wave speed. 3. **Express Powers in Terms of Amplitudes**: For the incident wave: \[ P_i = \frac{1}{2} \mu_1 \omega^2 A_i^2 v_1 \] For the reflected wave: \[ P_r = \frac{1}{2} \mu_1 \omega^2 A_r^2 v_1 \] For the transmitted wave: \[ P_t = \frac{1}{2} \mu_2 \omega^2 A_t^2 v_2 \] 4. **Set Up the Energy Conservation Equation**: From the conservation of energy, we can write: \[ \frac{1}{2} \mu_1 \omega^2 A_i^2 v_1 = \frac{1}{2} \mu_1 \omega^2 A_r^2 v_1 + \frac{1}{2} \mu_2 \omega^2 A_t^2 v_2 \] We can cancel out \( \frac{1}{2} \) and \( \omega^2 \) from all terms: \[ \mu_1 A_i^2 v_1 = \mu_1 A_r^2 v_1 + \mu_2 A_t^2 v_2 \] 5. **Substitute Mass Densities**: The mass densities can be related to wave speeds: \[ \mu_1 = \frac{T}{v_1}, \quad \mu_2 = \frac{T}{v_2} \] Substituting these into the equation gives: \[ \frac{T}{v_1} A_i^2 v_1 = \frac{T}{v_1} A_r^2 v_1 + \frac{T}{v_2} A_t^2 v_2 \] Cancelling \( T \) and \( v_1 \): \[ A_i^2 = A_r^2 + \frac{v_1}{v_2} A_t^2 \] 6. **Relate Amplitudes**: Using the relationship \( A_r = A_t - A_i \): Substitute \( A_r \) into the equation: \[ A_i^2 = (A_t - A_i)^2 + \frac{v_1}{v_2} A_t^2 \] Expanding and simplifying gives: \[ A_i^2 = A_t^2 - 2A_t A_i + A_i^2 + \frac{v_1}{v_2} A_t^2 \] Rearranging leads to: \[ 2A_t A_i = A_t^2\left(1 + \frac{v_1}{v_2}\right) \] 7. **Solve for \( A_t \)**: Rearranging gives: \[ A_t = \frac{2A_i v_2}{v_1 + v_2} \] Thus, we have proved: \[ A_t = \frac{2v_2}{v_1 + v_2} A_i \] 8. **Solve for \( A_r \)**: Now substituting \( A_t \) back into the equation for \( A_r \): \[ A_r = A_t - A_i = \frac{2v_2}{v_1 + v_2} A_i - A_i \] This simplifies to: \[ A_r = \left(\frac{2v_2 - v_1 - v_2}{v_1 + v_2}\right) A_i = \frac{(v_2 - v_1)}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \] ### Conclusion: Thus, we have proved both relations: \[ A_r = \frac{(v_2 - v_1)}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \quad \text{and} \quad A_t = \frac{2v_2}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \]

To prove the relations \( A_r = \frac{(v_2 - v_1)}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \) and \( A_t = \frac{2v_2}{(v_1 + v_2)} A_i \) using the principle of energy conservation, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Power Relationship**: The average power of the incident wave \( P_i \) is equal to the sum of the average power of the reflected wave \( P_r \) and the average power of the transmitted wave \( P_t \). This can be expressed as: \[ P_i = P_r + P_t ...
