 Sound waves carry information to your ears.  Most people hear sounds between 20 hertz and 20,000 hertz.  Sound waves are longitudinal waves— compressions.

Making Sound a longitudinal wave produced when matter vibrates – this in turn, causes the medium in which it is in to vibrate ex: tuning fork (the matter)

Resonance: occurs when an object absorbs energy from vibrations that are at its natural frequencies If one tuning fork is struck, its vibrations will.

Sound

Sound waves are… What type of waves are sound waves? Mechanical waves They need a medium to move through. They are longitudinal waves because they are made of compressions and rarefactions and cause the medium to vibrate in the same direction as the wave

Speed of sound Speed of sound varies, depending on the medium Travel fastest in solids, slowest in gases Speed of sound = 342 m/s (in air) THAT’S 765 mph! In water speed of sound = 1798 m/s Travels fastest in the most dense media Why?? Because the particles are closest together so they easily bump into each other passing the energy along

Intensity is measured in decibels (db) Intensity: the rate at which a wave’s energy flows through an area Sound intensity depends on: Amplitude – density of compressions A greater amplitude (closer compression) means more energy is passing through the wave Distance from source - closer to source the more intense the vibrations This is why you can “feel” the bass when close to a speaker Intensity is measured in decibels (db)

Frequency Frequency of a wave in general means how many waves appear in a given amount of time Frequency of a sound wave depends on how fast the source is vibrating The faster the source causes vibrations, the higher the frequency

Pitch How high or low a sound seems to be Depends on frequency, therefore on wavelength High frequency (short l) sounds are high pitched Low frequency (long l) sounds are low pitched. Human ears hear sounds between 20 and 20,000 Hz. We hear best between 440 & 7000 Hz

The Doppler Effect (of sound waves) Doppler Effect: a change in sound frequency (pitch) caused by the motion of the sound source, the listener, or both. Note: The sound is still being produced at the same frequency at its source, the air compressions change frequency by movement of the source.
