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.. 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. and. Perception of sound. Lecture 8. Pre-reading. : . §16.3. Fourier theorem. Why sine waves?. Any wave shape can be represented as a superposition of normal modes (components). §15.8.

S8P4. . 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 . 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. . 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 . 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 . 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.. Wave. particles vibrate parallel to the direction of the motion of the wave. Terminology. Compressions. : areas where particles come closer together. Rarefactions: . regions where particles are further apart. This Slideshow was developed to accompany the textbook. OpenStax. Physics.
