11.1 WAVES AND ENERGY
TRANSPORT
Basic Models: Particles and Waves Explain
Physicists use only a few basic models to describe the
physical world.

One such model is the particle: a point-like object with


no
inner structure and with certain characteristics such as
mass and electric charge.

Another basic model is the wave . Water waves are


familiar examples.

Intensity (symbol I , SI unit W/m2 ) is a measure of the
average power per unit area carried by the wave past a

TRANSPORT
ntensity and Distance from the Wave Source
For most waves, the intensity decreases as the distance
from the source increases. Some of the energy can be
absorbed (dissipated) by the wave medium.

Another reason intensity decreases with distance is that,


as the wave spreads out, the energy gets spread over a
larger and larger area.

A periodic wave repeats the same pattern over and over,
each repeating section transporting the energy that was
used to generate it.

Period, Frequency, Wavelength, and Amplitude


At any given point in space, a periodic wave repeats itself
after a time T called the period . The inverse of the
period is
the frequency f .

Slide 38

During one period T , a
periodic wave traveling at
speed v moves a distance vT .

wavelength (symbol λ , the

two waves of the same type pass through the same
region of space. Do the waves affect each other?

If the amplitudes of the waves are large enough, then particles in


the medium are displaced far enough from their equilibrium
positions that Hooke’s law (restoring force ∝ displacement) no
longer holds; in that case, the waves do affect each other.

However, for small amplitudes, the waves can pass through each
other and emerge unchanged . More generally, when the
amplitudes are not too large, the principle of superposition
applies.

occurs; a reflected wave carrying
some of the energy of the incident
wave travels backward from the

Slide 62
11.8 REFLECTION AND REFRACTION
Change in Wavelength at a
Boundary

When there is an abrupt change in wave medium, an


incident wave splits up at the boundary; part is
reflected and part is transmitted past the boundary
into the other
medium.

The frequencies of both the reflected and transmitted


waves are the same as the frequency of the incident
wave.

Slide 63

11.9 INTERFERENCE AND
DIFFRACTION
Interference
Suppose waves with the same frequency f but different
amplitudes A1 and A2 pass through the same point in
space.
If the waves are in phase at that point, the two waves
consistently reach their maxima at exactly the same time.

Slide 74
11.9 INTERFERENCE AND
DIFFRACTION
Interference
The superposition of the waves that are in phase with one
another is called constructive interference ; the
amplitude of the combined waves is the sum of the
amplitudes of the two individual waves ( A1 + A2 ).

Slide 75
11.9 INTERFERENCE AND
DIFFRACTION
Interference
If two waves with the same frequency are 180° out of
phase at a given point, one reaches its maximum when
the other reaches its minimum. The superposition of
waves that are 180° out of phase is called destructive
interference —the amplitude of the combined waves is
the difference of the amplitudes of the two individual
waves ( A1 − A2 ).

Slide 76
11.9 INTERFERENCE AND
DIFFRACTION

The two waves travel different distances d1 and d2 to reach


a point P. If d1 − d2 is an integral number of wavelengths,
interference is constructive at P. If d1 − d2 is an odd
number of half wavelengths, interference is destructive.

Strategy
The intensity is not the sum or difference of the individual
intensities.

The principle of superposition tells us that the maximum

sum and difference of the individual amplitudes.

Intensity is proportional to amplitude squared, so we find


the ratio of the amplitudes and then add or subtract them.

Coherence
The phase difference Δφ between two waves at a point
where they overlap is a measure of how much one is
ahead or behind the other in the cycle.

In our discussion of interference, we’ve assumed that the


waves are coherent —that their phase difference is
constant.

Waves are incoherent if the phase relationship between


them varies randomly.

DIFFRACTION
Diffraction
Diffraction is the spreading of
a wave around an obstacle in
its path. The amount of
diffraction depends on the
relative size of the obstacle
and the wavelength of the
waves.

Slide 82
11.9 INTERFERENCE AND
Notes DIFFRACTION
Reflection occurs at a boundary between different wave
media. Some energy may be transmitted into the new
medium and the rest is reflected. The wave transmitted
past the boundary is refracted (propagates in a different
direction).
• Coherent waves have the same frequency and maintain a
fixed phase relationship with one another. Coherent
waves that are in phase with one another interfere
constructively; those that are 180° out of phase interfere
destructively.
