This is determined by the amplitude of the sound wave
What is loudness?
200
100+ dB and an extremely high pitch are needed to break this
What is a wine glass?
200
Sound requires this to travel
What is a medium?
200
Determined by the frequency of the wave
What is pitch?
200
The outer, middle, and inner ear
What are the three basic parts of the ear?
200
One factor that affects sound and allows the sound to travel more easily the higher it is
What is temperature?
300
Sound cannot travel in this
What is space?
300
Sound reverberates best in this
What is a solid?
300
Caused by the compression and refraction of atoms
What is the travel of sound waves?
300
Acts as a funnel to concentrate the sound waves toward your middle and inner ear. Contains the ear flap and the ear canal.
What is the Outer Ear
300
The more stable this is, the better a sound wave can travel
What is a medium?
400
The science of sound
What is acoustics?
400
340.29 m/s
What is the speed of sound?
400
The distance a wave oscillates from its resting position
What is amplitude?
400
Made up of a cochlea, semicircular canals, and the auditory nerve.
What is the Inner Ear?
400
Differing frequencies can cause a sound wave to be more "direct" or "broad"
What is pitch?
500
Hot air expanding fast enough to break the sound barrier
What is thunder?
500
Created when objects vibrate and travels through the compression and refraction of atoms
What are sound waves?
500
The shift in frequency of acoustic or electromagnetic radiation emitted by a source moving relative to an observer as perceived by the observer: the shift is to higher frequencies when the source approaches and to lower frequencies when it recedes.
What is the Doppler Effect?
500
Connected to the mouth to equalize pressure in its air-filled cavity. Contains three tiny bones that sound waves travel across.
