How does changing the amplitude of a wave impact wave speed?
Changing the amplitude of a wave does not impact the wave speed. Wave speed is determined by the medium through which the wave is traveling. The amplitude only affects the energy of the wave, not its speed.
How does the frequency of a sound wave affect the speed at which the sound wave moves?
The frequency of a sound wave does not affect the speed at which the wave moves. The speed of sound in a medium is determined by the properties of that medium, such as its density and elasticity. However, frequency does impact the pitch of the sound we hear.
How does air pressure effects a sound wave?
Air pressure can affect a sound wave by changing the speed at which the wave travels. Higher air pressure leads to faster sound wave propagation due to increased molecular collisions, while lower air pressure can slow down sound waves. This can alter the pitch or tone of the sound.
What are the three features of a sound wave?
1) Sound wave always require material medium for their propogation. 2)Sound wave are type of transvers wave. 3)Speed of sound wave can be calculated by speed=sqrt(tension*length of wire/massof wire)
What factors does the speed of sound not depend on?
The speed of sound does not depend on the amplitude of the sound wave or the frequency of the wave. It is primarily determined by the medium through which it travels, such as air, water, or solids. Additionally, the speed of sound is not influenced by the direction in which the sound is traveling.
What speed do waves move at?
it deepens if it is a wave in the ocean or a sound wave
Refraction of a sound wave occurs when a wave passes at an angle from one medium into another in which the of the wave is different?
Refraction of a sound wave occurs when it passes through media with different densities, causing a change in its speed and direction. This change in speed leads to the bending of the sound wave at the interface between the two media.
A sound wave produced by a lightning bolt has a frequency of 36 Hz and a wavelength of 12.0 m what is the speed of the sound wave?
Speed = (frequency) x (wavelength) = (36) x (12) = 432 meters per second.Isn't this a pretty high speed for sound in air . . . ? ? ?
Is the speed of sound equal to an electromagnetic wave?
No, speed of sound in air is much slower than the speed of light in vacuum.
What makes sound speed?
Sound is propagated as a mechanical wave. As with all waves it travels and so has a speed.
If a wave has a frequency of 250 Hz and a length of 1.3 meters what is the speed of the sound waves?
The speed of a wave can be calculated using the formula: speed = frequency × wavelength. In this case, the speed of the sound wave is 325 m/s (250 Hz × 1.3 m).
What is the wavelength in a sound wave?
To find the wavelength, the following formula applies: λ = ν / f That in common words is: Wavelength = Wave's Speed / Wave's Frequency So, Wavelength of sound wave = Speed of sound wave / Frequency of sound wave Now, Speed of sound wave is 343 m/s, so Wavelength of sound wave = 343 m/s / Frequency of sound wave Frequency of sound waves audible to a human ear range between 20 Hz to 20 kHz. So filling the desired sound frequency in the equation above you get the desired wavelength of that sound wave.
