====== Chapter 08: Measurements ====== {{ :fsc-pctb-11:notes:fsc-pctb-11-notes-ch08.jpg?nolink&600|Chapter 08: Measurements}} This is a eighth chapter of the book Physics 11 published by Punjab Curriculum and Textbook Board, Lahore, Pakistan. After studying this chapter the students will be able to: * Recall the generation and propagation of waves. * Describe the nature of the motions in transverse and longitudinal waves. * Understand and use the term wavelength, frequency and speed of wave. * Understand and use the equation $v=f \lambda$ * Understand and describe Newton's formula of speed of sound. * Drive Laplace correction in Newton's formula of speed of sound for air. * Derive the formula $v=v_0 +0.61 t$. * Recognize and describe the factors on which speed of sound in air depends. * Explain and use the principle of superposition. * Understand the terms interference and beats. * Describe the phenomena of interference and beats giving examples of sound waves. * Understand and describe reflection of waves. * Describe experiments, which demonstrate stationary waves for stretched strings and vibrating air columns. * Explain the formation of a stationary wave using graphical method. * Understand the terms node and anti-node. * Understand and describe nodes of vibration of string. * Understand and describe Doppler's effect and its causes. * Recognize the applications of Doppler's effect in radar, sonar, astronomy, satellite and radar speed traps. | **Theory**: |{{ :fsc-pctb-11:notes:fsc-pctb-11-theory-ch08.pdf |Download PDF}} | | **Question**: |{{ :fsc-pctb-11:notes:fsc-pctb-11-questions-ch08.pdf |Download PDF}} | | **Numerical**: |{{ :fsc-pctb-11:notes:fsc-pctb-11-numericals-ch08.pdf |Download PDF}} | {{tag>FSc FSc_Part1 PCTB Notes}}
