PHYS 221 FINAL EXAM REVIEW SESSION Good news

PHYS 221 FINAL EXAM REVIEW SESSION

Good news, bad news… � I’ll be the Phys 222 SI Leader

How to participate in this review session � Don’t just sit there. � When I solve problems I’ll try to write up the generic equation that I’m using first, then plug in numbers. Generic equations will be in blue. All other work is in some other color. � When you see how I’m solving the problem, try to look up the equation on the equation sheet.

DON’T JUST SIT THERE

Examples… �

Doppler Effect � You’re running away from your crying sister (producing a sound at 3000 Hz) at a speed of 5 m/s. She’s running towards you at a rate of 3 m/s. What frequency do you hear?

Sound waves � A continuous succession of sinusoidal wave pulses are produced at one end of a very long string and travel along the length of the string. The wave has frequency 10 Hz seconds, amplitude. 2 m , and the string has mass 12 kg and a length of 500 meters and the tension through the string is 800 N. � Write an equation describing the wave: � How long does it take the wave train to travel 5 m along the string? � How long does it take a point on the wave to travel a distance of 5 m along the string?

SHM � A block of mass 5 kg is attached to a spring, and the block is stretched out 40 cm before being released. �If the period of the oscillation is 5 seconds, what is the spring constant? � Write an equation describing the spring if at t=0 the block is at x=40 cm.
