Characteristics of Sound Waves

Chapter 14 Sound

The pitch of a musical note is characterized by the sound’s

(A) amplitude

(B) frequency

(C) wavelength

(D) speed

Sound can travel through any kind of matter, but not through a vacuum.

The speed of sound is different in different materials; in general, it is slowest in gases, faster in liquids, and fastest in solids.

The speed depends somewhat on temperature, especially for gases.

(A) increases.

(B) decreases.

(C) does not change.

(D) increases if the atmospheric pressure is high.

(B) wavelength

(C) amplitude

(D) speed

"I love hearing that lonesome wail of the train whistle as themagnitude of the frequency of the wave changes due to theDoppler effect."


The Doppler Effect

The Doppler Effect

The Doppler Effect for two stationary observers

The Doppler effect occurs when a source of sound is moving with respect to an observer.

Stationary truck

Longer wavelengthLower frequency

Shorter wavelengthHigher frequency


The Doppler Effect

is experienced whenever there is relative motion between the sound source and an observer.

The Doppler Effect

Chapter 14 Sound

A police car with its siren on departs from a stationary observer. The frequency heard by the observer

(A) is higher than the source.

(B) is lower than the source.

(C) is the same as that of the source.

(D) is equal to zero.

You are standing still. What frequency do you detect if a fire engine whose siren emits at 1550 Hz moves at a speed of 32 m/s

a) toward you?

b) away from you?


The Doppler Effect (problem)

A bat flies toward a wall at a speed of 5.0 m/s. As it flies, the bat emits an ultrasonic sound wave with a frequency of 30.0 kHz.What frequency does the bat hear in the reflected wave?


The Doppler Effect (Problem)

Interference of Sound Waves

Sound waves interfere in the same way that other waves do in space.

Sources of Sound: Vibrating Strings and Air Columns

Musical instruments produce sounds in various ways –

vibrating strings

vibrating membranes

vibrating metal or wood shapes

vibrating air columns

The vibrations are transmitted to the air and then to our ears.

The vibration may be started by:

plucking

striking

bowing

blowing

Standing Waves

The strings on a guitar can be effectively shortened by fingering, raising the fundamental pitch.

The pitch of a string of a given length can also be altered by using a string of different density.
