5. Physics Talk 5.4  What kind of waves does sound make?  How does this relate to springs?  Compressional (longitudinal) waves

6. Physics Talk 5.4  What was the medium the sound traveled through?  The air in the straw or tube

7. Physics Talk 5.4  How do these related to the standing waves created by the stringed instrument?  Air molecules cannot vibrate at the bottom of the test tube, so this is a node of the wave  The open end of the test tube provides the wave’s amplitude  The vibration of the air at this end, is the sound you hear  This is the antinode of the wave

8. Physics Talk 5.4  What is diffraction?  The ability of sound waves to spread out or change direction as the emerge from an opening  This is why you can hear someone talking around a corner

9. Physics Talk 5.4  The top show a large amount of diffraction, when the opening is smaller  The bottom shows a small amount of diffraction, since the opening is larger

10. Physics Talk 5.4  How do megaphones work?  A megaphone increases the diffraction of sound, due to the small opening you tell into  The best opening size depends on the sound being produced

11. Vibrating Columns of Air

12. Physics Talk  How does changing wavelength effect frequency?  When keeping a constant wave speed, increasing the wavelength will decrease the frequency - causing a lower pitch

13. Physics Talk 5.4  Open tube wavelength  Closed tube wavelength  Half of the wavelength will fit  The wavelength is 2x the length of the tube  One quarter of the wavelength will fit  The wavelength is 4x the length of the tube

14. Physics Talk 5.4  Why does the closed straw have a lower pitch?  Why does the open straw have a higher pitch?  The wavelength is longer (4x), meaning the frequency is lower  The wavelength is shorter (2x), meaning the frequency is higher
