Introductionm531a2cc7777a85b9_1528450127855_0Introduction

Answer the introductory questions:

1. What is a sound wave?
2. List the basic features describing the sound.
3. What is a transverse wave?
4. What is a longitudinal wave?
5. What determines the speed of wave propagationwave propagationwave propagation?

1) Sound wave is an longitudinal mechanical wave propagating in the elastic medium, causing the effect of hearing in people.

2) The basic sound features are:

- Timbre - allows you to distinguish two sounds from different sources at the same volume and altitude.

- Height of sound - depends on the frequency of vibration of the medium.

- Volume - depends on the intensity of the sound wave.

3) The transverse wave is called the wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation.

4) The longitudinal wave is the wave in which the particles of the medium vibrate in the direction of the wave propagation.

5) The velocity of the wave propagation depends on the density and elastic properties of the medium in which the wave propagates. In addition, it should be emphasized that longitudinal waves in the solid body propagate about 1.5 times faster than transverse waves.

Please prepare the answers to the following questions.

1. What is the speed of wave propagationwave propagationwave propagation in a medium?
2. What determines the speed of soundspeed of soundspeed of sound in the air?
3. Compare the speed of sound propagation in the air at different temperatures.
4. Compare the speed of mechanical wave propagation in different media.

1. What is the speed of wave propagationwave propagationwave propagation in a medium?

Answer:
The speed of soundspeed of soundspeed of sound in a particular medium is the speed of propagation of an oblong mechanical disturbance in it.

2. What determines the speed of sound in the air?

Answer:
The speed of sound in substances depends on the rate of transmission of particle vibrations to adjacent molecules of the substance.
For low sound intensities (thus also for a small amplitude of vibrations) the speed associated with the oscillating motion is much lower than the speed of thermal movement of molecules. Therefore, the speed of sound depends neither on its intensity (except for very large intensities, e.g. during explosion) nor the frequency of vibrations.

Lesson summarym531a2cc7777a85b9_1528450119332_0Lesson summary

The speed of sound in the air (and generally also in gases) is clearly dependent on the temperature. The higher the air temperature, the faster the particles move and the higher the speed of sound is.
In typical everyday conditions in the atmosphere of the Earth, a change of air temperature by 10 degrees Celsius causes the change of about 5-6ms in the speed of sound.
The speed of sound in solid bodies depends mainly on the stresses. For example, due to stronger pulling of the string, you can get an increase in the speed of sound propagation and consequently increase the tone of its free oscillations.
