Stationary waves Progressive waves

• The profile of wave does not move

• The profile of the waves move in the direction of propagation

• No energy transferred along the wave

• Energy transferred along the direction of wave propagation

• Points in between two nodes are in the same phase.

• Nearby points are not in the same phase.

• Particles between successive nodes have different amplitudes

• Neighbouring particles in the medium have the same amplitude of oscillation.

Any three [3] (b) Intensity of a progressive wave is the power propagated per unit area, perpendicular to the direction of propagation.[1]

,API = where P = Rate of energy transferred and A = area of surface SI unit : Wm-2 [1]

(c) Stationary waves do not possess intensity. [1] Explanation: Stationary waves do not transfer energy. [1] The energy is restricted to a certain area. [1] Hence the rate of energy transferred, P is zero. P = 0, Intensity, I = 0. [1]

(d) The intensity of a wave from a point source is inversely proportional to the distance from the source.

rI 1 α [1]

Intensity of the wave decreases as the distance of the wavefront from O increases. As the distance of the wavefront from O increases, circumference of wavefront increases. [1] The same energy is distributed over a longer length. [1] Intensity is proportional to the square of the amplitude. 2 aI α [1] Hence, the amplitude of the wave decreases as the distance of the wavefront from O increases.

Therefore the charged particles causing the aurora cannot be electrons. 13. a)

The two distinct features are the continuous spectrum and the characteristic line spectrum. The continuous spectrum is produced by X-ray emitted as an electron decelerates when approaching the target metal. The incident electrons may penetrate an atom and collide with electrons in the K shell of the atom raising them to higher energy levels. The line spectrum is due to the radiation emitted when electrons from the excited state return to the lower energy levels.
