Transcript of Sound
SoundSound Introduction
Longitudinal waves with regions of high and low pressure that travel through a medium
Audible, Infrasonic, Ultrasonic
Speed of sound varies with temperature and density of the medium
• 343 m/s at 23°C in air04/20/2304/20/23 APHY101APHY101 11
SoundSound Sound Waves
Regions of condensation and rarefaction
• Example
The particles experience simple harmonic motion as the wave passes them
• Remember that the particles are already moving when the wave reaches them.

SoundSound Doppler Effect
Apparent change in the frequency of the wave due to motion of the source or observer
• Sound (trains, sirens) and light

Wave Superposition and InterferenceWave Superposition and Interference Superposition
Adding the displacements of two or more waves that are interacting.
• Constructive and destructive
