SUPER SCIENCE STATIONS PART 2 JEWETT MIDDLE ACADEMY MAGNET
PAGE 1 Title: Waves Standard: SC. 7. P. 10. 3 Recognize that light waves, sound waves, and other waves move at different speeds in different materials Objectives: Students will recognize that sound waves travel faster in liquids than in gases (air) and faster still in solids, and cannot travel in (the vacuum of) space. Students will explain that though sound waves travel faster in solids, more energy is lost and they cannot travel as far.

ANSWERS (CHART ANSWERS WILL VARY BUT THESE CONCEPTS SHOULD BE HIGHLIGHTED) Sound waves can travel through all kinds of mediums—some better than others—and that is why sound can travel through solid objects (like a wall or closed window). Most solid materials are better at directly transmitting sound than air. For example, if you take an object, such as a spoon, hold it right in front of your nose and tap the far end very lightly with your finger, you probably won’t hear anything. BUT if you put one end of the spoon next to your ear and tap the other end, a sound wave will travel straight through the spoon and you will hear it clearly.
ANSWERS CONTINUED Sound waves can’t travel forever. After a while they lose energy and fade away. They can also be weakened and distorted. When a sound wave traveling through the air encounters an obstacle, such as a tree or wall, some of the energy of the sound wave gets absorbed, so the sound comes out fainter and sometimes garbled on the other side.
ANSWERS CONTINUED Sound waves travel through different mediums at different speeds. At sea level, sound waves travel through the air at about 760 mph—about five miles a second—which means you can hear nearby sounds almost instantaneously. But they move through water 4 times that fast and through steel more than 17 times as fast.

PRACTICE QUESTION #1 Answer: D
PRACTICE QUESTION #2 Why does tightening a guitar string raise the pitch of the string when it is played? A. It stretches the string thinner so fewer sound waves are produced. B.

It increases the frequency of the sound waves produced by the plucked string.

PRACTICE QUESTION #3 Answer: C
