1) For a certain plane wave traveling through air, the maximum value of the excess or
acoustic pressure is 0.1 dyne cm-2. If the frequency is 1000 cycles sec-1, and the
density of air is 1.29 X10-3 gcm-3, find:
(i) the maximum particle displacement.
(ii) the maximum particle velocity.
(iii) the maximum condensation.
(iv) the maximum dilatation.
2) Two plane waves are traveling along the x-axis. The particle displacements due to
the separate waves are given by
Z1 = Zm cos k(-x + ct):
Z2 = -Zm cos k(x + ct):
For the two waves, at the position x = 0, find the relative phase of
(i) Z1 compared with Z2.
(ii) velocity of Z1 compared with velocity of Z2.
(iii) p1 compared with p2.
