If the frequency of the sound is 50 Hz, calculate the wavelength of the sound produced. [Assume the speed of the sound in air in 350 ms-1] v 350 = = 7m f 50 Figure 3 shows two sets of ripple tanks used to study diffraction of waves. λ=

(i)

Figure 3.1 Figure 3.2 What is meant by the diffraction of waves. Diffraction is the spreading out of waves when they move through a gap or around an obstacle

(ii)

Which of the two sets will show a bigger effect of diffraction. Explain your answer. The set shown in Figure 4.1 will show a bigger effect of diffraction. This is because the narrower the gap, the more the waves spread out.

(iii)

Redraw and complete Figure 3.1 and Figure 3.2 to show the between the two diffraction patterns.

(iv)

State the characteristic to the diffracted waves in terms of waves in terms of wavelength, frequency, speed and amplitude compared to the incident waves. (a) Wavelength remains unchanged (b) Frequency remains unchanged (c) Speed remains unchanged (d) Amplitude becomes smaller compared to the incident waves

(ii) Observe Figure 3.2(a) and (b). Compare the waves patterns and the wavelength of the waves before and after they pass through the gaps. Relate the size of the gaps, the waves patterns and the wavelengths to deduce a relevant physics concept. [5 marks] a. b. c. d.

e.

In figure 3.1(a), size of the wavelength is the same as size of the gap // In figure 3.1(b), size of the gap is wider than size of the wavelength In figure 3.1(a) and figure 3.1(b), size of the wavelengths are the same before and after they pass through the gaps. The waves emerging from the narrow gap in figure 3.1(a) is circular wavefronts The waves emerging from the wider gap is plane wavefronts When a wave passes through a gap, the wave spreads. The narrower the gap the greater the spreading of the wave

Figure 1.3 shows the seashore of a fishing village. During the rainy season, waves are big. One year the waves eroded the seashore, caused the jetty to collapse and damaged the fishermen’s boats. (c)

Figure 3.3 To prevent similar damage in the future, the fishermen suggest building retaining walls and relocating the jetty. Make further suggestion of ways to help the fishermen solve their problems. You should use your knowledge of reflection, refraction and diffraction of waves to explain these suggestions, to include the following aspects. (i) the design and structure of the retaining wall, (ii) the location of the new jetty (iii) the size or energy of the waves [10 marks] Answer: 1. Build slanting barrier to reduce speed of wave 2. Build the rough barrier to reduce reflection of the waves 3. Build the new jetty at the bay because the water is calm at the bay 4. Build the small opening surround the bay because diffraction happens at the opening 5. Build the barrier at the bay because the wave is spread according to the shape of the bay
