g) What do you understand by the normal modes of coupled oscillators ? If a coupled system has many normal modes, do all normal modes have the same frequency? Calculate the velocity of elastic longitudinal wave along a stretched steel wire, given −3 11 −2 density of steel = 8000 kgm , Young’s modulus of elasticity = 2×10 Nm . (3+2+5) 2. a) Two points x1 and x2 at x = 0 and x = 1 m are observed. The transverse motion of the two points are found to be as follows:
y1 ( x, t ) = 0.2 sin 3πt and
π y2 ( x, t ) = 0.2 sin 3πt + 8
Calculate the frequency, wavelength and speed of the wave.

b) A sinusoidal wave is described by y ( x, t ) = 4.0 sin (4.20 x − 5.95 t ) cm
where x is the position along the wave propagation. Determine the amplitude, wave number, wavelength, frequency and velocity of the wave. (2×5 = 10) c) Two waves, travelling along the same direction, are given by y1 ( x, t ) = a sin (ω1t − k1 x) and
y2 ( x, t ) = a sin (ω2t − k 2 x)
Suppose that ω1 and k1 are respectively slightly greater than ω2 and k2. (i) Derive an expression for the resultant wave obtained by their superposition. (ii) Explain the formation of wave packet.

and
y2 ( x, t ) = 0.2 sin π (t + 2 x) m
(i) Obtain the resultant displacement of the particle at x at time t. (ii) At what value of x is displacement zero at all times. (iii) What is the distance between two nearest values of x at which the displacement is zero. Is it related to wavelength?
