29.Case study 1

Consider an isolated system of n interacting particles. The mutual forces between pairs of particles
in the system cause changes in momenta of the individual particles. By third law, the mutual forces
between any pair of particles are equal and opposite. By second law the change in momentum for
any pair of particles are FΔ t and -FΔ t. Thus the momentum changes cancel in pairs and total
momentum of the system remains constant. This leads to a fundamental principle of Physics called
the law of conservation of linear momentum. This law states that the total linear momentum of an
isolated system of interacting particles is conserved.

30.Case study 2

When two sound waves of slightly different frequencies travelling along the same path in the same
direction in a medium superpose each other the intensity of resultant sound at any point in the
medium rises and falls alternately with time. These periodic variations in the intensity of sound are
called beats one rise and one fall of intensity constitute one beat. The number of beats produce per
second is called beat frequency. Due to persistence of hearing our ears are not able to distinguish
between two sounds as separate if the time interval between them is less than 1/ 10th of a sound.
