Intensity and Loudness
the amount of energy that passes through a certain area in a specific amount of time.
What is Pitch
how high or low a sound seems to be.
What is frequency
the number of wavelengths that pass a specific point in one second
Which is the example of transverse wave?
light and electromagnetic waves
Material through which a wave travels like air, liquids, solids, or vacuum of space, is known as
Medium
If Sound Waves have a high intensity to reach your ear what can it make your eardrum do
cause your eardrum to move back and forth a greater distance
The pitch of sound is determined
the frequency of vibration of the sound waves that produce them
What unit is frequency
Hertz(Hz)
What do waves transfer？
energy but not matter
The Trough of a wave is _________ the part of a wave
lowest
What is loundness
human perception of sound volume and primarily depends on sound intensity.
Higher pitch is equal too
Higher frequency
what is frequency in a longitudinal wave, such as sound
number of compressions (or rarefactions) that pass by a given point per second
The highest point on a wave is
the crest
Electromagnetic Spectrum is the range of _______________ of electromagnetic waves.
Frequencies
What property of a sound wave determines its loudness?
The amplitude of the sound wave determines its loudness; a larger amplitude corresponds to a louder sound.
On a piano what side have high pitches
The notes on the right side
when the pitch becomes low is the frequency higher or lower
lower
In what type of wave does the medium vibrate parallel to the direction of the wave?
longitudinal wave
waves that must have a medium to travel through?
mechanical
What does Intensity influence
how far away a sound can be hear
What is the pitch of a sound is primarily related on sound waves
the frequency of sound waves
if the wavelengths are short is the frequency high or low
When a wave goes into an object, changing mediums and bending, we call this
refraction
Radiation is the transfer of _____________ through matter or space as electromagnetic waves, such as visible light and infrared waves.
