What are the characteristics of sound waves?
The characteristics of a sound wave is the Amplitude, Frequency, Wavelength, time period, and velocity. The sound wave itself is a longitudinal wave that shows the rarefactions and compressions of a sound wave.
What gives a sound wave its pitch and intensity?
A sound wave's pitch is determined by its frequency; that is its cycles per unit of time. The sound wave's intensity or volume is determined by its amplitude; the maximum crest of a sound wave.
What if the molecules from a sound wave are compressed?
Nothing. That IS how a sound wave is propagated.
Is a sound wave continuous?
A sound wave is continuous for as long as the sound vibrations are being made at its source.
Which type of wave a sound wave is?
A sound wave is logitudinal because the motion of the medium (air) travels in the same direction as the wave (back and forth).
What are the parts of a sound wave?
the farm the sheep and the corn
What parts make up a sound wave?
Compressional and rarefaction
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
What is wave sampling in laymans terms?
A wave is what a sound LOOKS like. Loud parts of the sound would be the high part of the wave on your screen and quieter parts of a sound or song would be the small low thin parts of the wave. Wave sampling is not a very common term since most people just call it "sampling", is the method in which you would cut a "wave" or a " sound" out of a song using a computer program or mpc device so that you can use that sound for another purpose (most likely to use as a sound effect or as an instrument sound for another song).

Is a sound wave a electromaginic wave?
No. A sound wave is a pressure wave.
Is a EM wave a sound wave?
electromagnetic wave is not a sound wave
What part of the electromagnetic spectrum does the ultrasonic wave falls into?
An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.An ultrasonic wave is not an electromagnetic wave; it is a sound wave.
Do sound wave through solid is longitudinal?
sound waves travel faster in solid in a wave form motion that parts of could be called longitudinal;drop a rock in a lake and the ripples are the same type as sound waves
Is a compression wave a sound wave?
yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
What type of wave is sound wave?
A sound wave is considered a sinusoidal wave.
Describe an experiment to demonstrate that sound wave require a material for propagation?
No, i wont describe it...Ok, i will cock+your ass=a lot of pain (scream propagation)
What type of s mechanical wave is a sound wave?
sound wave is a longitudinal wave
