Which two properties of a sound wave change when a sound wave gets higher?
Its wavelength increases and its frequency decreases
What is it called when two sound waves combine so that the compressions of one wave overlap the rarefactions of another wave to produce a softer sound?
noise cancelling
What are examples of a wave?
There are two types of waves: 1. Longitudinal wave e.g. Sound waves 2. Transverse wave e.g. light waves
Two or more sound waves that overlap?
Sound quality is the term for the bending of overlapping sound wave frequencies through interference.
How does the shape of the sound wave alter the sound?
The shape of the sound wave alters the "timbre" of the sound. The best way to explain this is that a clarinet and a trumpet playing the same note have the same pitch, but the harmonics characteristic of each instrument are different, and so it's easy to tell the difference between the two.
Which two properties of a sound wave change when a sound wave gets higher?
Its wavelength increases and its frequency decreases
What are the two sound waves that travel through the air?
Transverse wave and a longitudinal wave
Which two properties of a sound wave change when a sound gets louder?
It was when the air hit the wave and it move to another direction
What is it called when two sound waves combine so that the compressions of one wave overlap the rarefactions of another wave to produce a softer sound?
noise cancelling
Which terms describes the distance between any two crests in a transverse wave or the distance between any two rarefactions in a longitudinal wave?
wavelength
How do you find the wavelength of a sound wave?
Measure the length between two crests or two troughs.
What are examples of a wave?
There are two types of waves: 1. Longitudinal wave e.g. Sound waves 2. Transverse wave e.g. light waves
The characteristic of a sound wave that you interpret as loudness is related to?
Two answers to this: Pressure as in Sound Pressure Level or, Amplitude.
Two waves that interfere completely result in a wave with a larger amplitude than either of the two initial waves.?
Regardless of the frequency of the wave, all sound:
Two or more sound waves that overlap?
Sound quality is the term for the bending of overlapping sound wave frequencies through interference.
How many type of sound wave are there?
there are two types of sound waves. (1) transverses waves (2) longitudinal waves
What are the two thing that characterize the practice of science?
Two elements that characterize the practice of science are hypothesis and empirical evidence.
