Because there are places in the gas with high pressure and places with low pressure (notice how the high and low pressure alternates), sound waves are often called ____________ waves

diffraction

Bending of waves around an object (such as through a doorway)

bathrooms

are known for their reverberation and this is why you sound fabulous while singing in the shower

sound tiles

are often used on the walls and ceilings of concert halls to help the sound reflect and cause reverberation to minimize any dead spots

vibrations

Sound is produced by -----

resonance

by swinging on a swing over and over again, you can get the swing to go really high. This is how ____________ or resonant frquency works

high

the type of molecules- lighter atoms such as Helium move faster than heavier atoms such as oxygen and nitrogen. This is why you have a _______ pitched voice when you inhale helium from a balloon

deadspots

caused by destructive interference of reflected sound waves

waves

the vibrations make _________ inside the cochlea, which vibrates nerves in the spiral

wind

instruments (flutes, horns, clarinets, etc.) produce their sound by longitudinal waves

string

instruments (guitars, pianos, violins, etc.) produce their sound by transverse pulse

The shorter a wave, the higher the frequency. Higher frequency = higher pitch, so they are directly related. (If frequency increases, pitch increases)

what is the relationship between pitch and frequency?

high

when a moving object is making a sound (car horn, police sirens), the pressure waves in front of the object have a small wavelength and therefore a ________ frequency

echo

reaches the listeners ear much later than 0.1 seconds

the second note vibrated slower

A note is played on a guitar. Next, a lower note is played on the guitar. Which of these statements describes the lower note?

Doppler effect is only apparent when the object generating the sound is approaching or leaving an object. The paramedic is traveling at the same rate as the ambulance making the sound, so they will not experience the Doppler effect. As a siren approaches an object, the apparent wavelengths become shorter causing higher frequency and higher pitch. As a siren moves away from an object, the apparent wavelength becomes longer because the ambulance is moving away from the object, causing a lower frequency and lower pitch.

A paramedic in an ambulance does not experience the Doppler effect of the siren. Why?

echo

A reflected sound wave

longitudinal

A wave in which the vibration is in the same direction as that in which the wave is traveling; sound waves

a rise in pitch, then a drop in pitch

As a sound source approaches and then moves past a stationary observer, the observer will hear

frequency

As the fire truck approached Mary, the pitch of the siren got higher. Once the fire truck passed and moved away, the siren's pitch got lower. This change in pitch is because of a change in the sound wave's

a material that absorbs sound

Cletus wants to make ear protectors for people who work around loud jet engines at Hartsfield Airport in Atlanta. Which of the following materials should he experiment with for the best results?

either source or listener should be moving

For the Doppler effect to occur, ___.

high pressure

Gases- since atoms are spread out, the atoms collide. This causes ___________________ and other areas with low pressure

The amplitude of a sound increases 10 times for every 20 dB increase in sound; therefore, the 120 dB sound is louder.

How do the amplitudes of a 120-decibel sound and a 100-decibel sound compare?

vibrates the eardrum

How does a sound wave interact with a human ear?

A long tube or string creates a long wavelength which has lower frequency (long and slow wave) and lower pitch. An instrument with a short string or short pipe on an organ will generate a short wave = short wavelength, meaning a higher frequency and generates a high pitch.

How is the length of a string on a stringed instrument related to the length of a pipe on an organ? Use the words frequency and wavelength in your answer.

reverberation

If reflection is heard no more than ).1 seconds after the original sound wave, then there is _________________ in the concert hall

frequency

If you want to change the pitch of a sound, you have to change the ___

longitudinal wave; Sound waves travel parallel and are compression or pressure waves made of areas of high pressure and low pressure.

Is sound a longitudinal or transverse wave?

Reverberation is the reflection of sound. Open spaces do not often have things to reverberate or reflect off of in a park, etc. This is more likely to produce an echo rather than reverberation.

It is extremely difficult to play, record and hear live music in a park or other open space. Explain why this is so. Use the word reverberation in your answer.

medium

Material (matter) through which a wave travels

supersonic

Moving at a speed greater than the speed of sound waves in the air

This is what you get when sound waves are reflected, or bounce back, off of a hard surface.

solids, liquids, and gasses

Through which media can mechanical waves travel?

False

True or False: Can sound travel through a vacuum (space).

true

True or False: Sound needs a medium.

true

True or False: Sound travels better through solids than through liquids

false

True or False: Sound waves are faster than light.

false

True or False: Sound will travel through water at 20⁰ C faster than 80⁰ C.

a sound wave with a frequency of 50 Hz

Which of the following would you hear as a low pitched sound?

The particles in liquids are closer together than particles in a gas; therefore, when a particle in a liquid vibrates, it does not have far to travel before bumping into the next particle and causing it to vibrate and bump into the next particle. Since there is more distance between particles in a gas, it takes longer for them to reach each other and carry the energy of the initial vibration.

Why does sound travel faster through water than through air?

solid molecules are packed tightly

Why is sound able to travel faster through a solid than a gas?

Yes, a full concert hall will have a different reverberation than an empty hall because an empty hall has nothing to absorb or diffuse sound waves off its smooth ceiling and walls, but a full concert hall has people to help absorb sound with their soft material clothing, hats, and coats. The absorption and diffusion of sound from the people and their clothing coats and hats will change the reverberation from an empty hall.

Would a full concert hall have different reverberation than an empty hall? Explain.

sound waves reflecting off smooth, flat surfaces throughout the house

You and your father inspect an empty house with the hopes of buying it. You walk through the rooms talking to one another, and you notice that your voices and footsteps are echoing in the big, empty house. What causes the echo?

Away from you. As the siren moves away, the apparent wavelengths grow longer, lower frequency and lower pitch as a result.
