H Bar And No Bar

h=x.mv

In the case of a circular path, n=1


h=2πaψ.mv

=h2π=aψ.mv

in this case aψ is parallel to x, but perpendicular to λ,

When n=2,

Δs=a2ψsin2(2θ)(Δθ)2+a2ψcos2(2θ)(Δθ)2

Δs=aψΔθsin2(2θ)+cos2(2θ)

Δs=aψΔθ

s=2π0aψdθ=2πaψ

Strangely both paths have the same length.  In fact,

Δs=a2ψsin2(nθ)(Δθ)2+a2ψcos2(nθ)(Δθ)2

Δs=aψΔθsin2(nθ)+cos2(nθ)

Δs=aψΔθ

Which means,

=aψ.mv

is valid for all n.  The path length being the same for all n also means that for all n, given a constant velocity at light speed, the period, T to traverse all paths is the same, hence, ψ has only one fundamental frequency, fn=1.

fn=1=1T

This is consistent with the fact that,

p=mc    and    E=mc2

which are both constants, independent of n.  The amplitude of the wave changes such that the energy of the wave is fully defined by,

E=hfn=1 --- (*)

For all cases of n,

c=nfn=1.λn=1n=fn=1.λn=1

Both p and E remain constant.  In this scenario where n wavelengths are packed into a perimeter of 2πaψ all harmonics generated has the same energy given by (*).

The paths for n=1 and n=2 and the reference circle is generated using the following code in Scilab.

    t = 0:0.01:(2.0*%pi);
    x = 3*cos(t);
    y = 3*sin(t);
    z = 10*0.2*sin(t.*2);
 
    param3d(x,y,z,45,60,"",[2,0]);
    p=get("hdl"); //get handle on current entity (here the polyline entity)
    p.foreground=2;

    t = 0:0.01:(2.0*%pi);
    x = 3*cos(t);
    y = 3*sin(t);
    z = 10*0.2*sin(t.*1);
 
    param3d(x,y,z,45,60,"",[2,0]);
    p=get("hdl"); //get handle on current entity (here the polyline entity)
    p.foreground=5;  
 
    t = 0:0.01:(2.0*%pi);
    x = 3*cos(t);
    y = 3*sin(t);
    z = 0.000002*sin(t.*1);
 
    param3d(x,y,z,45,60,"",[2,0]);
    p=get("hdl"); //get handle on current entity (here the polyline entity)
    p.foreground=1;

Have a nice day.
