    The document discusses properties of sound including that sound is a type of energy we hear as vibrations that move quickly back and forth through matter in the form of sound waves. It describes how sound travels through different media at different speeds and discusses topics like pitch, frequency, amplitude, and the Doppler effect.

    What are the

    properties of
    sound?
    Quarter 3: Lesson 54-55:
    Play a guitar.

    What do you hear?


    Sound

    Is a type of energy we
    hear.
    Vibrates

    Moves quickly back and


    forth.
    Compression

    Rarefaction
    Outer ear Inner ear

    Ear drum

    Middle ear
    Sound Waves

    Vibrations that move


    through matter
    Direction of sound

    Direction of energy
    Sound waves moves in the
    same direction the energy is
    moving in.

    Longitudinal
    Waves
    Waves that move in a different
    direction.

    Transverse
    Waves
    Sounds travel through 3 media.

    - Sound travels through the solid the fastest


    (energy passed through closely packed particles)
    - Sound travels through the gases the
    slowest.
    What is an echo?
    Echo are sound waves that are reflected
    back.
    (When the sound wave hits a flat, firm
    surface)
    How can echo or noise be
    reduced?

    By covering the room with soft, thick, uneven


    material.

    Floor foam Wall padding Wood panels Wall art


    How does covering rooms with the above
    materials help?

    When a sound wave hits the material the


    sound is absorbed (changes to thermal energy).

    Absorption:
    Transfer of energy when
    a wave disappears into a
    surface.
    Frequency

    The number of times an object vibrates per


    second.

    Unit:
    Hertz (Hz).
    Musical notes can be:

    High notes Low notes

    Pitch

    How high or low sound is.


    Low pitch
    sounds has
    lower
    frequency.

    High pitch
    sounds has
    higher
    frequency.
    Is there a difference between pitch
    and frequency?
    YES!!!

    Pitch is the way our ears hear sound.


    (The way we hear sound is related to the
    number of peaks BUT, they are not the
    same thing)
    How to change pitch?

    High pitch
    Short guitar string

    Vibrates fast
    causing high pitch
    Low pitch
    Long guitar string

    Vibrates slowly
    causing low pitch
    If you are standing still the sound waves will
    sound normal
    If the source of sound is moving towards
    you, you will hear more vibrations.

    So the sound
    you are
    hearing
    becomes high
    pitched.
    If the source of sound is moving away from
    you, you will hear less vibrations.

    So the sound you are hearing


    becomes low pitched.
    When sound frequency changes due to
    moving towards or away from the sound.

    The Doppler
    effect.
    When you are TALKING the sound waves
    will look like this

    When you are SCREAMING the sound


    waves will look like this

    When you are WHISPERING the sound


    waves will look like this
    Amplitude

    How dense is the air during compressions


    and rarefactions.
    Units:
    Decibels (dB)
    Humans hearing range.
