    Thank you, this is an excellent video! Can you tell me how compressions and rarefactions are positioned in relation to a standing wave? For example, in a Reuben's tube? Thank you 🙏

    • @boringphysicsteacher
      @boringphysicsteacher  11 месяцев назад

      Thank you for this interesting question! I actually did not know the answer to your question but I did some reading up and this is what I understood.
      A standing wave is created due to the interaction between the wave and its reflected counterpart. The features of a standing wave is that it creates nodes (where displacement is always zero) and antinodes (where displacement is maximum). For standing waves, the compressions AND rarefactions are both positioned at the nodes! You might think how is this possible? It is because at the nodes, when it becomes compression, half a period later, it will become rarefaction, then half a period, it becomes a compression again, then the cycle repeats.
      As an analogy, this pattern is similar to a person who is in favour and both left and right side come rushing towards him/her (like a compression) and he/she can't move (node -> zero displacement). Then both the left and right crowd wants a piece of hm/her and pulls him/her apart both left and right (like a rarefaction) but due to equal forces, he/she still can't move (node).
      Anyway, if you still can't visualise the above analogy, please look at this website. It has very clear animations on how nodes becomes compression then rarefaction.

      Hope this helps!

    if the wave direction is to the left, does positive displacement mean it moves to the left?

    • @boringphysicsteacher
      @boringphysicsteacher  2 месяца назад

      @@weatherinme6882 Thank you for your question! If the wave direction is to the left, positive displacement means the particle is still on the right side compared to zero displacement. It is because before you even start with a wave, you will have to first decide which direction is considered positive ( which is usually towards right). It is fixed regardless of which direction your wave is moving.
      An similar analogy is if you decide that moving right is positive direction, it will remain the same for all moving objects regardless of moving left or right. An object moving right will have more and more positive displacement while another object moving left has a more and more negative displacement.
      If we use as what you suggested, whenever you see a positive displacement, you can't tell if an object is on the right because it is moving right or it is actually on the left because it is moving left.
      Hope this clears things up

    hi sir may i know how do we identify if its a compression or rarefaction at a particular time, if we are given a a displacement time graph of the longitudinal wave instead?

    • @boringphysicsteacher
      @boringphysicsteacher  5 лет назад +2

      Hello! Thank you for your question! Actually, off the cuff answer is the moment when the displacement of the particle changes from negative to positive should be a compression. By extension ( or on the flip side), when displacement of the particle changes from positive to negative is when it is at a rarefaction. As for the reason, i think I will have to produce a video to explain it. :P

    what if the wave has a negative velocity itself?

    • @boringphysicsteacher
      @boringphysicsteacher  5 лет назад +1

      Thank you for your question. I assumed that by saying a wave having a negative velocity, you meant the wave is travelling in the opposite direction. The short answer is that there is no difference in the method of identifying compression and rarefaction for both positive and negative wave velocity. It is because for a displacement-distance graph is a snap-shot of the wave at a single moment in time. Compressions and rarefaction are at that position at the point in time and which direction they are travelling towards (positive or negative) next does not affect where they are now.

  • @vatsalgoyal4711
    @vatsalgoyal4711 5 лет назад

    Sir is the velocity maximum or minimum at a compression and rarefaction?

    • @boringphysicsteacher
      @boringphysicsteacher  5 лет назад

      Thank you for your question! It is not explained in this video. But to answer your question:
      Assuming right as the positive direction, the particle that is at the compression is having the maximum velocity/speed and moving towards right (positive direction).
      The particle at the rarefaction is also at maximum speed BUT is moving towards LEFT (negative direction). So depending on your definition, some will say that it is the minimum velocity as it has a negative sign.
      In short, both compression and rarefaction has maximum speed but compression is moving in + direction but rarefaction is moving in - direction.

      @@vatsalgoyal4711 Hi! Sorry to have caused some confusion.
      When I mentioned that in rarefaction, the particle is being pulled equally so it does not have displacement was meant to be an Analogy to help students better visualise. The animation that I showed are not the actual movement of the particles of the longitudinal waves. They are used to illustrate that in a compression and rarefaction, how are the displacement of the particles be represented as positive, negative or zero.
      The actual speed and movement of the particles in the longitudinal wave is described by their respective displacement-time graph (which is a sine or cosine wave graph). From there, you need to apply from kinematics that velocity is the gradient slope of displacement-time graph. When displacement is zero (either a compression or rarefaction) for a sine/cosine wave, the gradient slope is the steepest (meaning velocity having the largest magnitude). During a compression, the gradient slope (meaning velocity) is positive and in a rarefaction, the gradient slope is negative.
      I know that this is not easy to understand and I apologise again for causing confusion for you on my choice of animation and explanation in this video.

Since on the displacement distance graph it has 0 displacement. And also, why do we need to know the velocity of the particle of the wave? Does the velocity calculated refer to the speed of the wave or is it the speed of the particle? Thank you!
