Physics: The phase velocity of transverse waves in a crystal of atomic separation a is given byy = csin(ka/2) pka/2 1. What is the dispersion relation e(k)? 2. What is the group velocity as a function of k?

Wegener suggested that perhaps the rotation of the Earth caused the continents to shift towards and apart from each other....

e(k) = \frac{2a}{c} * sin (\frac{k*a}{2} )

G_{v} = \frac{d e(k ) }{dk } = \frac{a^2}{c} * cos (\frac{k* a}{2} )

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The velocity of transverse waves in a crystal of atomic separation is

$b_y = c \frac{sin (\frac{k*a}{2} )}{\frac{k*a}{2} }$

Generally the dispersion relation is mathematically represented as

e(k) = b_y * k

=> $e(k) = c \frac{sin(\frac{k*a}{2} ) }{ \frac{k*a}{2} } * k$

=> $e(k) = c * \frac{sin (\frac{k_a}{2} )}{ \frac{a}{2} }$

=> $e(k) = \frac{2a}{c} * sin (\frac{k*a}{2} )$

Generally the group velocity is mathematically represented as

$G_{v} = \frac{d e(k ) }{dk } = \frac{a^2}{c} * cos (\frac{k* a}{2} )$
