(1)由图读出波长λ=24m.若周期T>0.5s,波是向左传播的距离为x 1=
3
4 λ,时间t 1=
3
4 T 1,则T 1=
2
3 s ,波速v 1=
λ
T 1 =36m/s.
(2)若周期T<0.5s,波是向右传播的距离x 2=(n+
1
4 )λ=(24n+6)m,(n=1,2,…),波速v 2=
x 2
t =(48n+12)m/s,周期T 2=
λ
v 2 =
4
4n+1 s,(n=1,2,…).
答:( 1 )若周期T>0.5s.波是向左传播的,波速是36m/s,波的周期是
2
3 s .
( 2 )若周期T<0.5s,波是向右传播的,波速v 2=(48n+12)m/s,周期T 2=
4
4n+1 s,(n=1,2,…).
