100

A sine wave

What are pure tones graphed as?

100

Any influence that causes an object to undergo a change in speech, direction, or shape

What is force?

100

Maximum displacement from a position of rest

What is amplitude?

100

Amount of air that can be inhaled above Tidal Volume

What is Inspiratory Reserve Volume?

100

Changes fundamental frequency & is the main agent of regulating the human voice

What is the function of the cricothyroid joint?

200

The sound of a single frequency

What is a pure tone?

200

Resistance of any physical object to a change in its state or motion or rest (grams/kg)

What is Inertia?

200

Represents changes in air pressure

What is a waveform?

200

Air that remains in the lungs after a maximum exhalation

What is Residual Volume?

200

Affects the positioning of the vocal folds


What do the artyenoid cartilages do?

300

Waves that consist of 2 or more frequencies

What is a complex sound?

300

A force acting on a specific surface area (force/area)

What is pressure?

300

The time it takes for one cycle of vibration to occur (Frequency= 1/t)

What is a period?

300

Amount of air that can be exhaled below Tidal Volume

300

1. Lateral Cricoartyenoid Muscle
2. Interarytenoid

What are the adductor muscles?

400

Consist of a series of frequencies that are related to each other

What is a periodic complex sound?

400
Air flows from an area of high pressure to low pressure

How does air flow?

400

Number of cycles (of vibrations) per second

What is frequency?

400

Tidal Volume + Inspiratory Reserve Volume

What is Inspiratory Capacity?

400

Posterior Cricoarytenoid Muscle

What is the abductor muscle?

500

Consists of two or more frequencies, but they don't repeat

What is an aperiodic complex sound?

500

An INVERSE relationship between volume & pressure & a DIRECT relationship between pressure & density

What is Boyle's Law?

500

Pitch

What is frequency perceived as?

500

Interference that results in increased amplitude
