Sound Mrs. Pursley Chapter 21

What type of wave is Sound ??? Sound is a MECHANICAL wave. Sound is also a LONGITUDINAL wave. Draw an example of this wave below. lllllll l l l l llllll l l l l l l llllllll l l l l l l lllllll l l l l llllll l l l l l l llllllll l l l l l l Label the compressions and rarefactions

Examples of sound waves How sound waves travel http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist. html http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist. html http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist. html http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist _hear.html http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist _hear.html http://www.fearofphysics.com/Sound/dist _hear.html http://www.engineeringinteract.org/resour ces/oceanodyssey/flash/concepts/source sofsound.htm http://www.engineeringinteract.org/resour ces/oceanodyssey/flash/concepts/source sofsound.htm http://www.engineeringinteract.org/resour ces/oceanodyssey/flash/concepts/source sofsound.htm

How is sound Made Sound is made from VIBRATIONS. Sound travels the fastest in a SOLID and the slowest in a GAS Mechanical waves need a MEDIUM in order to travel. Can sound travel in space?___________ b/c ____________. http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/scie nce_up_close/521/deploy/interface.html http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/scie nce_up_close/521/deploy/interface.html

Properties of Sound PITCH is the highness or lowness of a sound In order to change the pitch of a sound the FREQUENCY of a wave needs to be changed. (That means you ADD MORE waves or TAKE AWAY waves or change the WAVELENGTH. ) The more waves you have the HIGHER the pitch The less waves you have the LOWER the pitch Frequency is measured in HERTZ. Frequencies that are too high for people to hear are called ULTRASONIC. Frequency affects the PITCH of a sound.

7
DOPPLER EFFECT The apparent change in PITCH of a sound caused by the motion of either the listener or the source of the sound. As an object moves toward you, the sound waves get CLOSER TOGETHER and the pitch of the sound is HIGH. As an object moves away from you, the sound waves get FURTHER APART and The pitch sounds LOWER.

9
Loudness and amplitude To increase the LOUDNESS of a wave, you must increase its amplitude. In other words if the wave was drawn, you would make the wave TALLER Example – look on page 610 for amplitudes and frequencies
10
Reflection of sound A reflection of a sound is called an ECHO Animals such as bats use ECHOLOCATION to find food and other objects http://www.fathom.com/course/21701775/2170 1775.html http://www.fathom.com/course/21701775/2170 1775.html http://www.fathom.com/course/21701775/2170 1775.html http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/schools/less on3/lesson1p4.htm http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/schools/less on3/lesson1p4.htm http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/schools/less on3/lesson1p4.htm (use slides 2-3 only) (use slides 2-3 only)
11
Sonic Boom A sonic boom is created when a jet overcomes or goes FASTER than the speed of sound.
12
Resonance Resonance occurs when one object that is vibrating causes another object to Vibrate. An example of this would be a tuning fork and guitar strings. If I strike the tuning fork and hold it close to qa guitar, the strings would also vibrate.
13
Noise and music Just because you do not like the Rhythm of a song does not make it NOISE Noise is a RANDOM MIX of frequencies Music is SOUND waves with a repeated pattern
14
Review Refraction, reflection and diffraction http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/school s/lesson3/lesson1p5.htm http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/school s/lesson3/lesson1p5.htm http://www.acoustics.salford.ac.uk/school s/lesson3/lesson1p5.htm (page 4-7)
