PPT-Waves and Sound

Honors Physics What is a wave A WAVE is a vibration or disturbance in space A MEDIUM is the substance that all SOUND WAVES travel through and need to have in order to move Two types of Waves. 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.. Students . will explore the wave nature of sound and electromagnetic radiation. . Identify . the characteristics of electromagnetic and . mechanical waves. . . b. Describe how the behavior of light waves . the Electromagnetic Spectrum. Waves. All waves carry … ENERGY!!!. Electromagnetic Waves (light) . Light waves are . transverse. waves. Electromagnetic. Radiation. Energy emitted from the . 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. . Sound waves are made up of a series of regions of high and . low pressure. . The areas of high pressure are called . compressions. . The . areas . of low pressure are called . rarefactions.. Wave energy travels through the material. But a particular piece . vibrations. - repetitive back and forth motions. Waves – a traveling . disturbance . that carries . energy . from one location to another. . Think about waves like . ripples . in a pond. . Mechanical Waves.

In the margin of your paper, write down all of the different sounds that you hear in the environment around you. Sound Chapter 12 Sound hunt Remain as quiet as you can for 1 minute. I will tell you when to begin, and when to stop. In the margin of your paper, write down all of the different sounds that you hear in the environment around you. Before the waves are made the particles are same distance apart. While waves moves through the medium the particles . compress. together, then they spread further apart (stretched areas)- . rarefaction.. Periodic Motion. Motion that repeats in a regular cycle is called . periodic motion. . . The revolution of a planet about its sun is an example of periodic motion. The highly reproducible period (T) of a planet is also called its year.. water. waves.... 4/5/2019. Physics 214 Fall 2010. 2. 1S-13 Slinky on Stand. Creating longitudinal compression waves in a slinky. What happens when you pull back and release one end of the slinky . ? .
