What happens to the energy of a sound wave if it is absorbed by a fabric?
Seeing as nobody has answered I will. Im not entirely sure so double check with a physics teacher but once its absorbed the fabric slightly heats up. like 0.0005 degrees. When absorbed reflection of sound is prevented.
What results in more energy in a wave?
A wave with a higher amplitude carries more energy, as the energy of a wave is directly proportional to its amplitude squared. Additionally, waves with higher frequencies also carry more energy, as energy is proportional to the square of the frequency.
When a wave approaches the shore it moves ahead of its?
When a wave approaches the shore, it moves ahead of its energy, causing the water at the front of the wave to start piling up and eventually break. This is what creates the crashing sound and whitewater associated with waves breaking on the shore.
Why does a pencil bounce when it falls on the ground and i don't want the answer as newton 3rd law of motion but in depth how it really bounces?
When an object is in motion, such as a falling pencil, it posseses energy, there fore something must absorb it's energy to stop it to a rest. (example- a car in motion stops by the brAke absorbing it's energy). But energy is never destroyed or created, it can only be transferred from one form to another (example- the cars brakes heat up when used because the cars energy is being transferred to heat energy). So, the instant the falling pencil strikes the ground, it stops falling correct? But the energy the previously falling pencil possess must be transferred to another form of energy the energy can't be "lost" right? So what happens is some of the energy is converted to heat when it strikes the ground, you may not believe it but there is heat when it hits the ground because of friction. Furthermore, some of the energy is also converted to sound energy. (the pencil makes a sound when it hits the ground and sound is energy) but the heat and the sound energy combined is not enough to transfer all of the energy of the falling pencil. So where does this little extra energy go? You guessed it! Back up! It hits the ground, it goes back up because not all of it is transferred to another form such as sound or heat so it must go back up- or as you said, bounces. Hope this helped you understand.
Is the loudness of a sound wave is related to its amplitude?
From a wave model perspective, the intensity of a sound (i.e. its "loudness") is dependent on the amount of energy that the sound wave carries. The energy of the wave is proportional to the amplitude, how far the wave goes up and down. Thus, the intensity of voice is dependent on how much force you applied to the air passing through your vocal cords, thus displacing them more (thus a bigger amplitude). Try it, put your hand to your throat and feel which sound is more noticeable (when you whisper, or when you shout).
What is sound wave made up of?
A sound wave is simply a vibration in the air molecules, or the molecules of some other substance. This vibration propagates as a wave, the energy gets transferred somewhere else.
What happens to the energy of a sound wave if it is absorbed by a fabric?
Seeing as nobody has answered I will. Im not entirely sure so double check with a physics teacher but once its absorbed the fabric slightly heats up. like 0.0005 degrees. When absorbed reflection of sound is prevented.
What wave is made up of a series of compressions and rarefactions?
A sound wave is made up of a series of compressions and rarefactions. In a compression, particles are close together, while in a rarefaction, particles are spread out. Sound waves travel by vibrating molecules and transferring energy through a medium like air or water.
What are the characteristics and properties of a transverse sound wave?
A transverse sound wave moves perpendicular to the direction of energy transfer, with particles vibrating up and down. It has properties like amplitude, frequency, wavelength, and speed, and can be represented by a sine wave.
Why does sound get louder when amplitude is increased?
Increasing the amplitude of a sound wave increases the energy transmitted by the wave, causing the air particles to move with greater intensity. This results in an increase in the perceived loudness of the sound as our ears pick up on the greater vibrations produced by the higher amplitude wave.
What results in more energy in a wave?
A wave with a higher amplitude carries more energy, as the energy of a wave is directly proportional to its amplitude squared. Additionally, waves with higher frequencies also carry more energy, as energy is proportional to the square of the frequency.
What is a sound wave made up of?
A sound wave is made up of compressions and rarefactions of air molecules. This repeating pattern of high and low pressure regions propagates through a medium, such as air or water, carrying the energy of the sound. The frequency of these compressions and rarefactions determines the pitch of the sound, while the amplitude determines the volume.
If the energy of a wave goes up does the frequency go down?
No, the frequency of a wave is determined by the number of wave cycles that pass a fixed point in a given unit of time, and is not directly related to the energy of the wave. An increase in energy does not inherently affect the frequency of the wave.
How can wave power be used?
Wave power can be used to generate electricity by capturing the energy from ocean waves. This can be done using devices such as wave energy converters or buoys that convert the up and down motion of the waves into mechanical energy, which is then converted into electricity. Wave power is a renewable and sustainable source of energy that can help reduce reliance on fossil fuels.
What difference in a note does the amplitude of its sound wave make?
The amplitude of a sound wave determines the volume or loudness of the note. A higher amplitude wave produces a louder sound, while a lower amplitude wave produces a quieter sound.
Does frequency change when you turn up the volume?
No, turning up the volume does not change the frequency of a sound wave. The frequency of a sound wave is determined by the rate of vibrations, while the volume is related to the amplitude of the wave, which increases the intensity of the sound.
Do particles of air in a sound wave move up and down?
no, they move horizontally along the direction of the sound wave movement.
