A wave pulse, travelling on a two piece ...

A wave pulse, travelling on a two piece string, gets partically reflected and partically transmitted at the junction, The reflected wave is inverted in shape as compard to the incident one. If the incident wave has speed `v` and the transmitted wave `v'`

A

`v' gt v`

B

`v' = v`

C

`v' lt v`

D

nothing can be said about the relation of `v` and `v'`.

A harmonic wave is travelling on string 1. At a junction with string 2 it is partly reflected and partly transmitted. The linear mass density of the second string is four times that of the first string, and that the boundary between the two strings is at x=0. If the expression for the incident wave is y_i = A_i cos (k_1 x-omega_1t) (a) What are the expressions for the transmitted and the reflected waves in terms of A_i, k_1 and omega_1 ? (b) Show that the average power carried by the incident wave is equal to the sum of the average power carried by the transmitted and reflected waves.

A wave on a stretched string is reflected from a fixed end P of the string. The phase difference, at P, between the incident and reflected waves is

When a wave pulse travelling in a string is reflected from rigid wall to which string is tied as shown in figure. For this situation two statements are given below. (1) The reflected pulse will be in same orientation of incident pulse due to a phase change of pi radians (2) During reflection the wall exert a force on string in upward direction
