ExerciseExerciseExerciseExercise How far away is a lightening bolt that is
heard 12.0 sec after the flash is seen? Given: t=12.0 sec and v =1/3 km / sec Wanted: d Solution: Use d= v t d = (1 / 3 km/sec) (12.0 sec)= 4 km

ResonanceResonanceResonanceResonance system that has a natural frequency like a
tight string or a tube (flute)
driven by a tiny oscillating force
Resonce occurs when the frequency of the force matches the natural frequency of the system.
InterferenceInterference When two waves overlap they form an interference pattern
which can be either a constructive interference or a destructive interference.

ExerciseExerciseExerciseExercise What is the beat frequency when a sound of
256 Hz meets a sound of 260 Hz Given: F1=256 Hz and F2= 260 Hz Wanted: F beats Solution: Use F Beats = Abs(F1 - F2) F Beats = Abs(F1 - F2) = 4 Hz
