REMINDER DONT FORGET TO STUDY Electromagnetic waves Mechanical waves Interference Reflection Refraction Pitch diagrams 1 Define the following words Crest the highest part of a transverse wave. Section 8.5. Key Terms. Audible Sound Waves. Infrasonic Wave. Ultrasonic Wave. Echo. Mach Number (. M. ). Pressure (. p. ). Sound Intensity. Decibel (dB). Categories of Sound Waves. Sound waves fall into three categories covering different ranges of frequencies.. Chapter 16. 16.1 The Nature of Waves. A Wave:. Traveling disturbance. Carries energy from place to place. Two Different Types:. Transverse. Longitudinal . Slinky. If the end is jerked up and down, an upward pulse is sent traveling toward the right.. By Rhett Price. Speed of Sound . Speed of sound depends on density. Correlation between speed and density. Not as fast as light speed. Also affected by pressure and temperature. Positive correlation between them. Comparing Wave Properties & Energy. Essential Standard. 6.P.1Understand the properties of waves and the wavelike property of energy in earthquakes, light and sound waves.. Clarifying Objective. 6.P .. Which of the following waves . requires a material medium through which to travel? . (a) Sound . (b) Television . (c) Radio. (d) X ray. Q1. (a) Sound . Sound is a mechanical wave, transferred through air, or other media, by vibrations passed along through the media. by meaning that it requires a medium through which to travel. . T. ypes of wave interactions. Reflection. Refraction. Diffraction. Interference. Reflection. The bouncing back of a wave when it hits a surface.. * NOTE: When waves hits a substance some of it is transmitted and some of it is reflected.. An old riddle ….. If a tree falls in a forest, and no one hears it, does the tree make a sound?. What is “sound”?. Sound Waves. To a scientist, a tree makes a sound whether someone hears it or not.. Wave Properties. There are 6 main properties, or interactions, of waves that occur when a wave comes in contact with another wave , or a boundary. . The 6 Interactions of waves are. Interference. Diffraction. How do matter and energy interact when waves are generated?. What are the three main types of mechanical waves?. What are properties of waves?. Essential Questions:. Waves. A disturbance that transfers energy from place to place. True or False. 1. A . wave transports energy but not matter.. True or False. 2. As . the frequency of sound waves increases, the wavelength of the sound waves decreases.. True or False. 3. Sound . waves cannot travel through solids. Producing and Detecting sound. What is sound?. The sound you hear is sound waves that can only travel through matter.. Sound waves are longitudinal waves. . Sources of sound. Every sound comes from a vibration, which is the energy that the wave uses to carry the sound.. Leonardo de Vinci. Waves Properties. 1. Transverse Waves:. The particles of the medium vibrate perpendicularly to the direction of the wave. Sound is a . longitudinal. . (Mechanical)wave caused by a . vibrating. object. Molecules . collide. , producing sound. Examples: . Vocal chords. , guitar or piano strings, tuning fork, etc.. . Longitudinal Wave. 2022-2023 Season. Russ Burleson. geaux15@hotmail.com. . 1. Agenda. Binder Check/Homework review. Mechanical Wave overview. Transverse Waves. Surface Waves. Longitudinal Waves (general). Sound Waves (Longitudinal).
