Doppler effect, moving sources/receivers

seems smaller Away from observer

Doppler Example A speaker sits on a small moving cart and emits a short 1

Watt sine wave pulse at 340 Hz (the speed of sound in air is 340 m/s, so = 1m ). The cart is 30 meters away from the wall and moving towards it at 20 m/s.

The sound reflects perfectly from the wall. To an observer on the cart, what is the Doppler shifted frequency of the directly reflected sound?

Considering only the position of the cart, what is the intensity of the reflected sound? (In principle on would have to look at the energy per unit time in the moving frame.)

Doppler Example The sound reflects perfectly from the wall. To an observer on

the cart, what is the Doppler shifted frequency of the directly reflected sound?

At the wall: fwall = 340 / (1-20/340) = 361 Hz

Wall becomes “source” for the subsequent part

At the speaker f ’ = fwall (1+ 20/340) = 382 Hz

Example Interference

Considering only the position of the cart, what is the intensity of the reflected sound to this observer? (In principle one would have to look at the energy per unit time in the moving frame.)

vcart t + vsound t = 2 x 30 m = 60 m

t = 60 / (340+20) = 0.17 s dsound = 340 * 0.17 m = 58 m

I = 1 / (4 582) = 2.4 x 10-5 W/m2 or 74 dBs

Three key pieces of information Time of echo Intensity of echo Frequency of echo

Plus prior knowledge of object being studied

With modern technology (analog and digital) this can be done in real time.


Superposition

Q: What happens when two waves “collide” ?

A: They ADD together! We say the waves are “superimposed”.


Interference of Waves 2D Surface Waves on Water

In phase sources separated by a distance d

d


Principle of superposition The superposition of 2 or more waves is called interference

Constructive interference:

These two waves are in phase.

Their crests are aligned.

Their superposition produces a

wave with amplitude 2a

Destructive interference:

These two waves are out of phase.

The crests of one are aligned with the troughs of the other.

Their superposition produces a

wave with zero amplitude


Interference: space and time Is this a point of constructive

or destructive interference?

What do we need to do to make the sound from these two speakers interfere constructively?


Interference of SoundSound waves interfere, just like transverse waves do. The resulting wave (displacement, pressure) is the sum of the two (or more) waves you started with.

Example Interference A speaker sits on a pedestal 2 m tall and emits a sine wave

at 343 Hz (the speed of sound in air is 343 m/s, so = 1m ). Only the direct sound wave and that which reflects off the ground at a position half-way between the speaker and the person (also 2 m tall) makes it to the persons ear.

How close to the speaker can the person stand (A to D) so they hear a maximum sound intensity assuming there is no phase change at the ground (this is a bad assumption)?

The distances AD and BCD have equal transit times so the sound waves will be in phase. The only need is for AB =

Example Interference

The geometry dictates everything else.

AB = AD = BC+CD = BC + (h2 + (d/2)2)½ = d

AC = AB+BC = +BC = (h2 + d/22)½ Eliminating BC gives +d = 2 (h2 + d2/4)½

+ 2d + d2 = 4 h2 + d2

1 + 2d = 4 h2 / d = 2 h2 / – ½

Because the ground is more dense than air there will be a phase change of and so we really should set AB to/2 or 0.5 m.

Wave motion at interfacesReflection of a Wave, Fixed End

When the pulse reaches the support, the pulse moves back along the string in the opposite direction

This is the reflection of the pulse

The pulse is inverted

Standing waves Two waves traveling in opposite direction interfere with each

other.

If the conditions are right, same k & , their interference generates a standing wave:

DRight(x,t)= a sin(kx-t) DLeft(x,t)= a sin(kx+t)

A standing wave does not propagate in space, it “stands” in place.

A standing wave has nodes and antinodes

D(x,t)= DL(x,t) + DR(x,t)

D(x,t)= 2a sin(kx) cos(t)

The outer curve is the amplitude function

A(x) = 2a sin(kx)

when t = 2n n = 0,1,2,…

k = wave number = 2π/λNodes
