Introduction:
Types of waves
Two basic types of waves,
transverse and
longitudinal.
A transverse wave is one
in which the disturbance
occurs perpendicular to
the direction of travel of
the wave.
Types of waves
Periodic Waves
The transverse and longitudinal waves that we have been discussing are
called periodic waves because they consist of cycles or patterns that are
produced over and over again by the source.

Oscillating Properties
Each day we encounter many kinds of oscillatory motion, such as
swinging pendulum of a clock, a person bouncing on a trampoline,
a vibrating guitar string, and a mass on a spring.
They have common properties:
Amplitude A is the
maximum excursion of a
particle of the medium
from the particles
undisturbed position.
Wavelength is the horizontal length of one cycle of the wave.
Oscillating Properties
Period T is the time required for the wave to travel a distance of
one wavelength. The period T is related to the frequency f

Example of Simple Harmonic motion
Simple Pendulum
Vibration of mass by two stretched
springs
Vibrations of stretched string.
Damped oscillation.
Fd = bv
b = damping constant (kg/s)
Assumption:
Gravitational force on block is negligible compared to the damping
force and the force on the block from the spring.
Damping force is to be proportional to the velocity of the particle.
No damping force acts when particle is at rest.

Resonance
Takes place when the driving frequency of the
external oscillatory force is equal to the natural
frequency of the oscillating system
Thus the energy received by the mass is at
maximum, and so the system will oscillate at
maximum amplitude

Examples of Resonance
Magnetic Resonance
Strong, varying radio frequency electromagnetic
fields are used to cause the nuclei of atoms to
oscillate.
In any given molecule, there will be many
resonant frequencies. Energy is absorbed
whenever resonance appears.
What happened?
Another case
Besides wind, there was also another peculiar
incident that happened on a bridge
In 1831, a French battalion was marching over a
suspension bridge in Angers
In terms of k, k = 2 / , and
the angular frequency, = 2 / , this is:
v =/k
This is the velocity at which the overall shape of the waves amplitudes,
or the wave envelope, propagates. (= signal velocity)
Here, phase velocity = group velocity (the medium is non-dispersive)
Like vacuum
Black dot moves at phase velocity. Red dot moves at group velocity.
This is normal dispersion (refractive index decreases with increasing )
Black dot moves at group velocity. Red dot moves at phase velocity.
This is anomalous dispersion (refractive index increases with increasing )
