Moving Point source: Doppler effect and shock
wave
Press to
try it (Each click will create a new window!), Close the created window
to Quit
Things to try:
- wave speed, wave length and the speed of the point source can be adjusted
- Click near tip of the corresponding arrows and drag the mouse
- click mouse button within the window to suspend the animation, click
it again to continue.
- When ( speed of the point source > wave speed ), a shock
wave is formed.
It would be highly appreciated if you can give me some suggestions about
this applet. I would like to make it better.
Any suggestions? Please click hwang@phy03.phy.ntnu.edu.tw
