Which instrument uses electricity to measure sounds waves?
oscilloscope
Why the amplitude doesn't depend on frequency and time period?
Amplitude is how loud sound is and does not change a sounds pitch. They are independent.
What are the two elements of sounds?
Sounds, which are mechanical energy, vary in both frequency and amplitude. The pitch of a sound, the "highness" or "lowness" of that sound is a function of its frequency. Higher frequency equal higher pitch. The amplitude of a sound is the sound energy or "loudness" of the sound. The higher the amplitude of the sound wave, the more energy in the wave and the louder it is. source, medium and sender
What are two musical instruments that produce high-pitched sounds?
a kazoo and a recorder
What produce the sounds of voices that are contained in the larynx?
your larynx or (voicebox)
Which instrument uses electricity to measure sounds waves?
oscilloscope
What do sounds have in common?
Pitch and Amplitude
How do you here sounds?
you here sounds through vibrations, pitch and amplitude?
Is the amplitude of a sound wave determined by the sounds pitch?
yes because amplitude is based an the pitch of the sound
Can two sounds have the frequency but different amplitude?
Yes.
What are two ways sounds can be different?
Frequency (low or high sounds) and amplitude (loudness).
Why is a sound wave with a larger amplitude more likely to damage your hearing that one with a small amplitude?
Loud sounds carry more energy than soft sounds!
What are the properties of music?
- frequency of sounds - intensity of sounds - amplitude - sound pressure - wave number
What does the amplitude of a wave depend on?
In the case of sound, amplitude is related to volume or loudness.- loud sounds generate waves of larger amplitude and your ear would register sound waves of large amplitude as louder.
What does sounds look like?
You cant see sound, but you better can listen to it. An oscilloscope can show the microphone output.
How do airplanes produce sounds?
They produce sounds by their engines
A device used to electronically show the crest and trough of sounds?
An oscilloscope is a device that is used to electronically show the crest and trough of sounds. These were previously called oscillographs.
