Sound Waves
Sound Wave � Sound wave: https: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=Ug. E 2 GIQw. UCw
Sound Waves � Sound is a longitudinal wave produced by the vibration of an object and transmitted to the object’s environment
Sound Waves � Anything that creates sound produces a longitudinal mechanical wave: loudspeakers, musical instruments and thunder cause the air particles around them to vibrate
Speed of Sound � The speed at which sound travels changes from one medium to another � The most common reference point is the speed of sound in air: 340 m/s � Sound travels faster in liquid or solid mediumexample: water = 1490 m/s, steel = 5200 m/s

Concorde � 1976 -2003 � London to NYC average: 7 -8 hours � Concorde: 3. 5 hours
Decibel Scale � The volume of a sound depends on its intensity (wave amplitude), which is the amount of energy being transmitted � The greater the energy, the louder the sound decibel scale is a relative scale that represents the perception of the intensity of sound by the human ear
Decibel Scale � Variations on the decibel scale are measured in factors of 10 � For each increase of 10 d. B, a sound is 10 times louder (Example: a sound that is 20 d. B is 100 times louder than a 0 d. B sound)
