EXAM III
Physics 101: Lecture 22, Pg 2
Speed of SoundSpeed of Sound
Recall for pulse on string: v = sqrt(T / ) For fluids: v = sqrt(B/)
Medium Speed (m/s)
Air 343
Helium 972
Water 1500
Steel 5600
B = bulk modulus
Physics 101: Lecture 22, Pg 3
Velocity ACTVelocity ACTA sound wave having frequency f0, speed v0 and wavelength 0, is traveling through air when in encounters a large helium-filled balloon. Inside the balloon the frequency of the wave is f1, its speed is v1, and its wavelength is 1 Compare the speed of the sound wave inside and outside the balloon
1. v1 < v0
2. v1 = v0
3. v1 > v0
V1=965m/sV0=343m/s
correct
Physics 101: Lecture 22, Pg 4
Frequency ACTFrequency ACTA sound wave having frequency f0, speed v0 and wavelength 0, is traveling through air when in encounters a large helium-filled balloon. Inside the balloon the frequency of the wave is f1, its speed is v1, and its wavelength is 1 Compare the frequency of the sound wave inside and outside the balloon
1. f1 < f0
2. f1 = f0
3. f1 > f0 f1f0
correct
Time between wave peaks does not change!
Physics 101: Lecture 22, Pg 5
Wavelength ACTWavelength ACTA sound wave having frequency f0, speed v0 and wavelength 0, is traveling through air when in encounters a large helium-filled balloon. Inside the balloon the frequency of the wave is f1, its speed is v1, and its wavelength is 1 Compare the wavelength of the sound wave inside and outside the balloon
1. 1 < 0
2. 1 = 0
3. 1 > 0
0 1correct
= v / f

Intensity and LoudnessIntensity and Loudness Intensity is the power per unit area.
I = P / AUnits: Watts/m2
For Sound WavesI = p0
2 / (2 v) (po is the pressure amplitude)
Proportional to p02 (note: Energy goes as A2)
Loudness (Decibels)Loudness perception is logarithmicThreshold for hearing I0 = 10-12 W/m2
