Have you checked if your college has a tutoring center? Usually they offer free tutoring for the first several physics courses.
It takes a lot of time but it works REALLY well. You can do your homework there and they’ll tell you if you make a mistake.
There are probably only a couple of concepts you need help with. Have them walk you through 3 of the harder homework problems at the end of a unit and you’ll be amazed at how far that gets you.
If you don’t have access to tutoring (literally the best way to learn), go to your prof’s office hours. Read the problems and ask about what you’re struggling with.
Is it feasible? Sure. The limit on this kind of calculation is basically how much detail do we need to add to the environment (i.e., can we make the model) and how high resolution does the sound wave need to be (can we calculate it given finite compute resources).
To get something that roughly sounds like a rock? Not difficult to model or calculate, if we make some reasonable assumptions.
The sound of a wet towel thrown in the water during a hailstorm? Uhhh that’s a tough one.
Simulating sound uses classical mechanics governed by the wave equation, which is well-understood. In terms of CPU power, the calculation to propagate a simple sound wave (wavelet) could probably have been done on a TI-89 calculator from high school.
These comics seem to age surprisingly well.
It’s a Christmas present to him but even more of one for everybody else!
Paladin: It works because I just feel really strongly about it.
The more we know about this, the better. Depressing as it may be, learning about these means eventually we may be able to revive them.
It all depends on what you mean by affect. Two em waves in the same space will have a different overall amplitude at any frequency.
If you mean as in the overall color of light, that will change based on how much/what frequency waves are combined. Think about adding a bit of black sand to a jar of white sand – from a distance it will appear grey but the actual colors of individual grains of sand (frequency of “individual” em waves) won’t change.
For wifi, data transmission is via phase modulation of the em wave, so the signal is resilient against adding different frequencies/amplitudes but may suffer if the same frequency is transmitted at a different phase.
Why do you think the organic label for food means nothing?
