A.K.A. The Paper Cup Phone Why do you hear things on the other end? What is sound anyways?

The Physics of Sound Sound travels through the air (and different media) in waves, called Sound Waves These waves cause the air to oscillate (vibrate) back and forth

Not Just Any Wave The waves (ripples) created by throwing a rock into the pond are Transverse Waves Sound waves are NOT transverse waves Sound waves ARE Longitudinal Waves

Transverse Waves Pretend like you are at a Canucks game. Everyone do the wave starting from the left to the right! What direction is the wave traveling? –The wave travels to the right What direction is the displacement caused by the wave? –Displacement is vertical; Perpendicular to the travel direction.

Transverse Waves NOT SOUND WAVES !!!

Longitudinal Waves Do the wave again, but this time, instead of moving your arms up and down, move them side to side. What direction is the wave traveling? –The wave travels to the right What direction is the displacement caused by the wave? –Displacement is horizontal; Parallel to the travel direction

Sound Wave Basics Two main components of a sound wave that affects what we hear are amplitude and frequency. Amplitude determines how loud it is. Frequency determines the “pitch”.

Amplitude The Amplitude measures the displacement of the air molecules.

Frequency Frequency is the number of times the wave oscillates back and forth in 1 second. It has units called Hertz

Sound Production How does one make sound? –Vocal cords, speakers, headphones etc. What do these all have in common? –They all vibrate the air!

Sound Reproduction Speakers take an electronic signal, and reproduce sound. By far most common type of speaker is the Dynamic Speaker. Other types of speakers include piezoelectric speakers, plasma arc speakers and electrostatic speakers.

Dynamic Speakers

Voice Coil The voice coil is solenoid (loop of wires) that is attached to the diaphragm When a current passes through the wires, a magnetic field is produced. The direction of the magnetic field depends on the direction of the current.

Apply an Electronic Signal What happens when an electronic signal is applied to the sound coil? The magnetic field created in the sound coil will either be opposed or attracted by the field from the permanent magnet. This causes the sound coil to oscillate. The diaphragm oscillates as well and thus produces a sound wave.
