For a transverse wave travelling along a straight line, the distance between two peaks (crests) is , while the distance between one crest and one trough is . The possible wavelengths (in ) of the waves are :
.
Given : Distance between one crest and one trough
Distance between two crests .
Here and are integer.
Hence possible wavelengths metre
For which of the following do the longitudinal waves exist?
Vacuum
Air
Water
Both (b) and (c)
Longitudinal waves like sound require material medium.
Sound travels in rocks in the form of
longitudinal elastic waves only
transverse elastic waves only
both longitudinal and transverse elastic waves
non-elastic waves
Sound can travel longitudinally as well as transversly in solids.
When a sound wave goes from one medium to another, the quantity that remains unchanged is
frequency
wavelength
amplitude
speed
Frequency of wave is a function of the source of waves. Therefore, it remains unchanged.
