What else can I help you with?
A sound wave has compressions that are very close to each other What is true about this sound wave?
The frequency of this sound wave is very near constant.
What is the result of a reflected sound wave?
The result of a reflected sound wave is obviously an echo.
How do you think the wave from a loud sound compares to the wave from a soft sound?
The amplitude (The height of the wave) of the wave increases as the sound gets louder.
What is determined by amplitude of a sound wave?
the strength or volume of the sound wave :)
An example of a purely longitudinal wave is a?
Sound wave is an example of a purely longitudinal wave. In a sound wave, the particles of the medium vibrate in the same direction as the wave is moving, creating compressions and rarefactions as the wave travels through the medium.
Waves often appear as a series of crests called?
Waves often appear as a series of crests called wave trains. These wave trains consist of multiple individual waves following one another in succession.
What is a real life example of rarefaction?
When a sound wave travels through air you get a succession of compressions and rarefactions
What is a picture of a sound wave look like?
a wave although you cannot photograph a sound wave. you can photograph the affects of a sound wave. if you put an extremely large amp and subwoofer near a pond; you sould witness ripples in the water. this is sound at work! it would appear as very small waves.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
No, a sound wave is a compressional wave.
What would a high pitch sound wave look like?
A high pitch sound wave would have a higher frequency, with closely packed wave crests. This would appear as waves that are more tightly compressed together in a graphical representation.
Is a sound wave a electromaginic wave?
No. A sound wave is a pressure wave.
Is a compression wave a sound wave?
yes a sound wave is a Compressional wave
Is a sound wave a longitudinal wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave.
Is a sound wave a transverse wave?
Yes, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Is sound a transverse wave?
No, sound is a longitudinal wave, not a transverse wave.
Volume of a sound wave is equal to the what?
The amplitude of a sound wave is the same as its volume.
Is a sound wave transverse in nature?
No, a sound wave is a longitudinal wave, not transverse.
