What can you do to a guitar string to make the vibration have a longer amplitude?
pluck it more strongly
200

Sound travels in _______.

What is compression waves

200
The medium in which sound travels the slowest.
gas
200
Is there sound in space? Why or why not?
No, because there is no medium (no molecules) for sound to travel through.
200

hertz
200
Name an animal that uses echolocation.
bats, dolphins, and porpoises
300
The back and forth movement of matter.
vibration
300
Why sound travels through a solid the fastest.
The molecules are closer together.
300
The number of waves in a given amount of time. For example, 200 waves per second.
Frequency

What 2 things could you do to a guitar string to make the pitch get higher?
You could tighten the string or make the string shorter.
300
What is a vacuum? Is sound possible in a vacuum?
The absence of matter, like in space where there are no molecules. There is no sound in space because there are no molecules to vibrate.
400
Part of the wave where molecules are very close together.
compression
400
Why sound travels the slowest in a gas.
The molecules are farther apart.
400
How high or low a sound is.
Pitch
400
How loud or soft a sound is determined by the _________ of the wave.
amplitude
400
What do humans use that is similar to echolocation?
sonar
500
Part of the wave where the molecules are spread out.
rarefaction
500
Does sound travel in a straight line or outward in all directions?
Outward in all directions
500

Which frequency would have a higher pitch? A. 200 waves per second B. 500 waves per second C 1000 waves per second

C
