  • Slide 1
  • P H Y S I C S Chapter 7: Waves and Vibrations Section 7C: Wave Properties and Sound
  • Slide 2
  • Mechanical Wave A disturbance that travels through a medium i.e. Sound requires medium of air or water
  • Slide 3
  • What is a Wave?
  • Slide 4
  • Mechanical Wave Waves transfer energy and not matter
  • Slide 5
  • Sine Wave Wave motion can be mathematically described by a sine or cosine wave
  • Slide 6
  • Two Types of Waves Transverse disturbance is perpendicular to motion Longitudinal disturbance is parallel to motion
  • Slide 7
  • Slinky Demonstration Energy is transported not matter Transverse vs. Longitudinal
  • Slide 8
  • Parts of a Wave Wavelength () distance in one cycle Amplitude displacement Crest high point Trough low point Note: Lambda
  • Slide 9
  • Sound Waves and Tuning Fork Demonstration Frequency Pitch Amplitude Volume Note: Frequency is wave cycles per second (Hz) 512 Hz 1024 Hz 2048 Hz
  • Slide 10
  • Speed of Sound Note: Sound travels faster in solids, liquids and gas respectively TempSpeed -10 o C325 m/s 0 o C331 m/s 10 o C337 m/s 20 o C343 m/s 30 o C349 m/s MediumSpeed Air (20 o C)343 m/s Helium972 m/s Alcohol1,143 m/s Water1,493 m/s Iron5,130 m/s Pyrex Glass5,640 m/s Diamond12,000 m/s

  • Slide 14
  • In-Class Problem #1 Determine the (a) number of waves, (b) wavelength, (c) amplitude, (d) frequency, (e) period and (f) wave speed. waves = 2 = 0.04 m A = 0.02 m f = 0.4 Hz T = 2.5 s v = 0.016 m/s
  • Slide 15
  • In-Class Problem #2 A toy boat in the ocean rises every 3.0 s as wave crests pass by. The distance between wave crests is 5.0 m. Determine the (a) frequency, (b) period, (c) the wave length and (d) how fast are the waves traveling.
