1 1. Introduction 12: PRELAB: INTERFERENCE As you have seen in your studies of standing waves, a wave and its reflection can add together constructively (peak meets peak, giving large amplitude) or destructively (peak meets valley, cancelling each other). This type of adding is called INTERFERENCE, and it depends on the relative phase of the interfering waves. Since the direct and reflected waves are coming from the same source, they clearly start out in phase. Whether or not they come back together in phase depends on path length. If the difference in the two path lengths is 1,2,3,etc. wavelengths, then the waves will be back in phase. If there is an extra _ wavelength, however, they will be out of phase. 2. An Example of Microphone Placement The next page contains an excerpt from an article on the importance of a microphone placement. Read the excerpt and answer the following questions: 1. When the pressure wave is reflected from the table, is there a 180 o phase shift? (Think back to the standing waves in the open and closed tubes). 2. Look at Fig from the excerpt. Suppose that the direct sound travels 2 meters, and the reflected sound covers a greater distance of 2 _ meters. Therefore, the difference in the two path lengths is d = 0.5m. Constructive interference will occur when d = _, 2_, 3_, 4_,, where _ is the wavelength. Use the relation v = _ f, (v speed of sound, f frequency) to complete calculations of the first four frequencies at which constructive interference will occur. Assume v = 344 m/s. Then, calculate the first four frequencies at which destructive interference (d =, (1+_) _, (2+_)_, ) will occur. Case Constructive interference Destructive interference 1. _ = d = 0.5 m f 1 = v/_ = 688 Hz; _ = 2d = 1 m f 1 = 344 Hz 2. _ = d/2 = 0.25 m f 2 = Hz; _ = 2d/3 = 0.33m f 2 = Hz 3. _ = f 3 = Hz; _ = f 3 = Hz 4. _ = f 4 = Hz; _ = f 4 = Hz 12: Interference Prelab - 1
2 Excerpts from an article on microphone placing: Another example of the interference idea, and one of practical value, is the question of hte microphone placement when using a public address system. Consider a group of people sitting around a table with the microphone placed somewhere in the center. Should the mike be placed on a stand, or should it be laid directly on the table top itself as shown in Fig. 1? Almost everyone, without even thinking, will answer that the stand is the more favorable setup because that is the way it is usually done. However, almost everyone is wrong! As we shall now show, the use of the table-plus-stand can lead to an undesirable partial sound cancellation caused by destructive interference at certain frequencies. To understand this we only need to remember that sound arrives at the mike via two paths: (a) directly from the speaker, and (b) along a path that has been reflected from the table top as indicated in Fig. 2. The arrival of these two waves should arouse your suspicions because the two will overlap at the mike and the conditions for either constructive or destructive interference might be right. For example, if the path of the reflected wave is one half of a wavelength longer than that of the direct wave, the two waves will arrive out of phase. A partial cancellation results in this case because the two waves, in general, may not be equally loud, and hence, their amplitudes would not be the same. An example of Microphone Placement Fig. 1: Should the microphone be placed directly on the top of the table or should a microphone stand be used? Fig. 2: The direct and reflected sound waves arrive at the mike by two different paths. Interference between the two waves will occur. To illustrate this problem, suppose the direct sound travels 2 meters and the reflected sound covers a greater distance of 2.5 meters. Now, as a person speaks, the voice emits different frequencies within the audio range, and each of these frequencies will give rise to direct and reflected sounds. Fro the sound wave whose frequency is 344 Hz, the conditions are perfect for destructive interference since, like the speaker example, the reflected wave travels one-half a wavelength or 0.5 meters, further. The sound intensity reaching the microphone might look something like Fig. 3.. The figure shows that the sound near 344 Hz is substantially quieter than normal because of the destructive interference that has occurred between the direct and reflected waves. Therefore the voices, as amplified by the public address system, will sound unnatural due to the loudness "hole" near 344 Hz. While the 344 Hz tone suffers a loss in intensity due to destructive interference, the 688 Hz tone will exhibit constructive interference and, hence, produce a louder than normal sound at the mike. The reason for the constructive interference is that the wavelength of the 688 Hz sound is 0.5 meters, which is precisely the path difference between the direct and reflected sounds. A path difference of one whole wavelength causes the waves to arrive in-phase at the mike. Figure 3 shows a "bump" in the frequency response curve at 688 Hz that implies that the sound at this frequency will be louder than normal and will, once again, appear unnatural. What is the solution to the problem of destructive and constructive interference? Simple. Place the microphone directly on the tabletop thereby forcing the direct and reflected waves to travel the same distance. The two waves will always arrive at the microphone in-phase regardless of their frequency. There will never be an out-of-phase condition eliminating part of the sound. By this manner the microphone is 12: Interference Prelab - 2
3 more efficient picking up the sound. Therefore, either place a microphone very close to, or very far away from, a reflecting surface in order to avoid destructive interference problems. Some of the sound intensity here has been lost due to destructive interference between the direct and reflected waves Constructive interference Frequency [Hz] Fig. 3: Interference can produce a partial cancellation of the sound at certain frequencies or an enhancement at other frequencies, depending on whether the waves are in-phase or out-of-phase when they reach the mike. 12: Interference Prelab - 3
4 3. Interference Patterns in Space Pressure pulses travel out from a sound source in concentric spheres. When two closely spaced, identical sources emit sounds, an interference pattern of loud and soft is produced. 1. The next page shows such an interference pattern. The lines drawn through the crossing points of the circles show the loud areas. 2. The page after that is blank. Use a COMPASS to make an interference pattern like the example, except with the sources closer together, as shown. The scale at the bottom of the the page shows the spacing of the circles of high pressure. Draw lines through the crossing points to show the loud regions. Mark with dotted lines the soft regions. 3. Use another blank page to make a drawing assuming the same source separation as before, and twice longer wavelength. 4. Compare cases 1, 2 and 3. Write down your observations. 12: Interference Prelab - 4
