What is the energy transformation of megaphone?
Electrical energy gets converted to sound energy. When we speak into the speaker, our sound waves get converted into electrical signals. These signals get amplified and emitted as louder sound. Thus, electrical energy (electrical signals) gets converted into sound energy (amplified/louder sound).
The more energy a sound wave carries the louder the sound and the bigger its... what?
Other things being equal, the sound wave with more energy will have a greater amplitude.However, the energy (more precisely, the intensity) also depends on the distance from the source, and on the exact frequency.
What is the energy of a sound wave most closely related to?
It is most closely related to its amplitude (loudness, magnitude) because this is determined by the energy used to create the sound. Louder noises generally take more energy to create.
How does the loudness or softness of a sound relate to the energy it carries?
Sound has two quantitative qualities that we usually measure and those are amplitude and frequency. So I am asuming you are referring to the loudness and softness as the amplitude quantity. The louder a sound, the more energy it carries. So, a loud sound, using your descriptive terms, has more energy than a soft sound, which has less amplitutde.
What happens to the sound as the amplitude of the sound wave increases?
Amplitude = "Loudness" In that a direct increase in amplitude will cause the sound to be "louder".
What is sound louder than?
Amplitude is a measure of the size of sound waves. It depends on the amount of energy that started the waves. Greater amplitude waves have more energy and greater intensity, so they sound louder. As sound waves travel farther from their source, the more spread out their energy becomes.
Does more energy make the sound louder?
Generally, yes.
Can sound energy be louder in water?
Yes.
Why When a banjo string is plucked hard why does it create a louder sound?
Plucking harder puts more energy into the string's movement, so it moves with a bigger amplitude, producing a louder sound.
Why do you make a louder noise by hitting something harder?
More energy in, more energy out. Hitting something harder means that you are applying more energy in the 'hit'. Sound waves are a form of energy. So your hit might produce only louder sound, or you might break the object. Either way, the energy you put into the system comes out as sound and/or a broken object and/or some degree of heat.
In general as the energy of a sound wave increases?
the sound gets louder
What makes sound loud?
it depends how much energy is used making the sound the more energy the louder because sound waves are transverse waves and waves are a reapeating disturbance of energy

What type of energy does an electric amplifier use to produce louder sound?
they use electrical and sound energy
Why are some sounds louder than others?
The loudness of a sound is related to how much energy is transmitted to the air. Clapping your hands transmits a small amount of energy. Detonating a stick of dynamite transmits MUCH more energy. The amplitude of the sound wave is much greater, and the noise, louder.
What is the energy of a sound wave closely related to?
It is most closely related to its amplitude (loudness, magnitude) because this is determined by the energy used to create the sound. Louder noises generally take more energy to create.
