at the "first harmonic" which is the fundamental), *37, 41, 45, 49,
51. In this list, I included all odd problems that I might ask
about. The answers are in the back of the book; email me if you need
them.
- Chapter 16 (not speed of sound in liquid or solid).
- Chapter 17 (not 17.2 (Interference); not 17.3 (Diffraction))
- Note that the m/L in the speed of a wave on a string is
called the linear mass density.
- A page 3 has been added to the equation sheet.
- My brief notes on waves are below with the waves handouts.
