12.2 SoundComplex Sound WavesBeatsDoppler Effect.Complex waves• In general sound waves are a combination of different frequencies. • The different frequencies can be determined by mathematical procedure called a Fourier Transform. TimedisplacementFrequencyrelativeamplitudeComplex waves consist of different frequencycomponents , i.e. harmonics.Frequency dependence of HearingBeatsSuperposition of two waves with different frequencies produce oscillation in amplitude. Due to constructive and destructive interference.Tbb21b1fffT==−Beat FrequencyTuning musical instrumentsThe beat frequency for two musical instruments is zero when the two are in tune. (have the same frequency)2Doppler EffectDoppler effect- the shift in frequency of a wave where the source and observer are moving relative to one another.Two different cases:Observer moving – source stationarySource moving- observer stationary.Observer moving toward a Stationary source (Relative Velocity Increases)++== =+λoo oosssvv vv vff(1)fvv•Relative velocity of wave (vo+ v ) increases. •Frequency increasessosofvvff =−V = speed of soundVo=speed of observerObserver moving away from a stationary source (Relative velocity decreases) −−== =−λoo oosssvv vv vff(1)fvvVososofvvff −=−Relative velocity of wave (v-vo) decreases.
