Given below are some examples of wave motion. State in each case if the wave motion is transverse , longitudinal or a combination of both: (a) Motion of a kink in a longitudinal spring produced by displacing one end of the spring sideways. (b) Waves produced in a cylinder containing a liquid by moving its piston back and forth. (c) Waves produced by a motorboat sailing in water. (d) Ultrasonoic waves in air produced by a vibrating quartz crystal.

A sound wave whose frequency is 5000 Hz travels in air and then hits the water surface. The ratio of its wavelength in water and air is

The force of resistance encountered by water on a motor boat of mass m going in still water with velocity v is proportional to the velocity vdot At t=0 when its velocity is v_0, then engine shuts off. Find an expression for the position of motor boat at time t and also the distance travelled by the boat before it comes to rest. Take the proportionality constant as k > 0.
